This, after losing a previous dispute stemming from a 1984 agreement outlining the division of royalties between the owners of the copyright in the original work and the derivative work.

The riddim making duo submitted a copyright documents for the 1990s dancehall hit song “Dem Bow” by Shabba Ranks in a Los Angeles Court, but Brian, speaking exclusively with WMV says that will not be enough to stake claim over and entire genre even if the riddim is similar to "Dem Bow" genre songs.
A California judges set to decide if the case will go to jury on Thursday September 22 based on evidence presented by the plaintiffs and the dismissal request by lawyers the defendants which include Pitbull, Drake, Justin Timberlake, Karol G, Bad Bunny, Daddy Yankee and more. If the case goes to trial, a forensic musicologist like Brian will be called in to determine whether or not there is a common thread between 1800 reggaeton songs and Steely and Clevie's 1989 riddim 'Fish Market'.
The San Fransisco native admits he is not acquainted with reggae and dancehall culture and only became interested upon hearing about the Steely and Clevie Case. He also says he has been hired by record labels and advertising companies to ensure there is not infringement in songs they may use.

After a successful five year run as the “Coachella of Africa” Adbul and his team had to discontinue the the use of the name.
The late 30s African music boss insist painstakingly that ‘Afrochella’ had nothing to do with Coachella and says “we wanted to speak to sounds of Africa. ‘Chella’ is a latin term that means “sound of” and we wanted to communicate African sounds”
As both festivals move on with Coachella, a spring time show on the U.S. West Coast over two weekends with multiple genres on stage and artist from all over the world, Afrofuture have its inaugural show in Ghana during the Christmas holidays with a direct focus on African music and culture.
