Legendary producer and former member of music group Blackstreet, Teddy Riley, has filed a lawsuit against estranged group members for illegal use of the quartet's name, VIBE magazine reports. But Riley isn't taking on all his bandmates alone. According to the lawsuit, Teddy Riley, who reportedly owns the Blackstreet trademark, also filed with co-owner and group member Chauncey Black. The pair have held rights to the name since 1992. In the lawsuit, Riley and Black alleged that Mark Middleton and Eric Williams have booked themselves for performances and used the name without permission since 2003. Middleton and Williams have continued to use the trademark, ignoring cease and desist letters sent by Riley and Black's lawyers. "Defendants have used the name and mark Blackstreet in such a manner as to create actual confusion and likelihood of confusion among prospective customers and/or purchasers of the services provided by plaintiffs," the lawsuit reads, according to AllHipHop.com. Middleton and Williams admitted to having issues with Riley and Black during a radio interview on Hartford, Connecticut's Hot 93.7. They claimed there were "two sets" of Blackstreet because the two owners refused to share proceeds. According to AllHipHop.com, Riley and Black said that Middleton and Williams signed a contract, stipulating they were "works for hire" and had no rights to the trademark name. 大意是 Teddy Riley宣稱由他主導的R&B美聲團體BLACKstreet 這團名早在1992年就註冊了但在2003年被Mark Middleton和Eric Williams拿去使用他要告這兩位前團員侵權因為這些年造成他們商業利益與聽眾的混淆 Mark和Eric說當初BLACKstreet本來就是共用的 Teddy卻說這兩人是被BLACKstreet僱用的 Mark和Eric近年來都在幕後寫歌與製作我印象中好像沒有用BLACKstreet之名（待查）　而根據熟稔黑樂的朋友爆料 Teddy似乎有把籍籍無名創作人的作品盜用的紀錄看來人品好像不怎麼高這次的訴訟也宣告BLACKstreet近期的重組計劃受挫畢竟BLACKstreet本來就是團體形象而且團員個個也都有料即使Teddy Riley是主導其中運作 BLACKstreet這名字也是有趣 BLACK是Chauncey 'Hannibal' Black和Joseph Stonestreet的姓名縮寫最後誰能告訴我曾記麻薯到底是誰的呢???? -- http://crotchery2.blogspot.com/ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 114.24.79.198 ※ 編輯: prexceed 來自: 114.24.79.198 (12/09 03:02)
