Music Biz: Cali Swag District (Dougie song) Sues BMI for Royalty Money
Cali Swag District says it hasn’t seen a dime from a company that’s supposed to pay ’em every time their smash hit gets played … which is why they’re now suing.
The guys behind “Teach Me How To Dougie” just filed suit against BMI … claiming they were supposed to get half the royalty money when their hit dropped, but the music giant sent all the checks to the group’s agent instead … and the guys never got paid.
The guys have no idea how much they’re owed, but they know it’s north of $187,000.
In case you forgot … here’s the track.
