Music producer Del B is threatening to take Runtown to court over unpaid royalties for work done on his hit single, Mad Over You.
Del B alleged that he got “nothing” for producing Mad Over You and Bend Down Pause, and may have to take Runtown’s record label, Eric Manny Entertainment, to court over the matter.
In an interview with Cool FM Lagos on Thursday, 21 March, the producer, who has worked with major names in the industry, admitted that he has had to take people to court on occasions for failure to pay him for services rendered.
“I have had to take people to court,” he explains. ”Most especially Eric Manny. I’m suing them for royalties – for not getting nothing actually for producing ‘Mad Over You and Bend Down Pause”
Both songs, released between 2015 and 2016, were produced for Runtown who at the time was signed unto the label with the contract now legally dissolved.
