Looks like they’ll have to figure this out somewhere else!
Supreme Court has refused to get involved in a dispute between Eminem’s former prod company, F.B.T. productions, and Universal Music Group.
The drama has to do with downloads of Em’s songs & ringtones.
According to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, F.B.T. Productions LLC’s contract “entitled Eminem and his producers to a 50-50 split with Universal for recordings licensed to digital distributors such as Apple Inc.’s iTunes.”
F.B.T. and Em had been paid 12 percent of sales, which is the “agreed-upon rate for physical albums.”
Hopefully they’re able to resolve everything as painlessly as possible sans Supreme Court.
