Termination of TSL Network Contract

In 2025, TSL Network began working with Dirk Allen (Derrick Rupp) to support his music career, investing in a professional website and collaborating with producers to create country instrumentals. The partnership was intended to foster Allen’s growth as an artist within a supportive, family-oriented environment. However, TSL Network ended the contract due to concerns about Allen’s behavior, which was deemed incompatible with the company’s values of respect, professionalism, and safety.

Following the tragic loss of a TSL Network team member due to alcohol-related complications, the company implemented a policy requiring artists to refrain from excessive alcohol consumption. Allen, who allegedly consumed six beers daily, was asked to comply with this policy. Although he initially agreed, he exhibited a confrontational attitude, including making inappropriate remarks, such as referring to a TSL Network representative as a “slave master.” Additionally, TSL Network observed behaviors that raised liability concerns, including documented instances of property damage, physical altercations with others, and an incident where he attempted to prevent a TSL Network member from leaving a space against their will. These actions led TSL Network to conclude that continuing the partnership posed unacceptable risks.

TSL Network’s decision to terminate the contract was based solely on Allen’s conduct and its misalignment with the company’s standards, not on any attempt to force him to compromise his personal values, as he has claimed to people and online platforms. The company remains committed to supporting artists who share its vision of integrity and collaboration.
