The songwriters who have accused Chris Brown and Drake of ripping off one of their tracks on the 2019 hit ‘No Guidance’ have hit back in a new legal filing.

Blur will “always be capable” of working together, says Graham Coxon
Graham Coxon has said that Blur will “always be capable” of reforming whenever the time is right.Speaking to Gary Kemp and Guy Pratt on their Rockonteurs podcast, Coxon said that Blur’s 2009 reunion to headline Glastonbury was a real turning point on his view of the band, and – having settled his differences with Damon Albarn – there is always the possibility that they’ll do more together.Of that Glastonbury set, he says: “It was great because I played [the songs] in a completely different way. I didn’t feel forced to play them and I felt more grateful for the situation, and PAs had come on a long way … So you could hear yourself clearly, it was less of a struggle in that way, the audiences were huge and happy, and I thought ‘well, this is a flipping good job, I’m playing a lovely guitar through a Marshall that’s cranked right up, I’m singing and I can hear myself’.

Former Jimi Hendrix collaborators go legal over Experience catalogue
The estates of Jimi Hendrix’s one-time collaborators have sued Sony Music UK accusing the major – as the licensee of the Hendrix catalogue – of copyright infringement, while also seeking allegedly unpaid royalties.We knew this dispute was brewing, because last month the Hendrix estate and Sony went to court in New York seeking a declaratory judgement that agreements reached in the 1970s with Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell – the other two members of the Jimi Hendrix Experience – were still valid and enforceable.Those agreements were negotiated in the years after Hendrix’s death in 1970. In them, Redding and Mitchell basically gave up any copyright or royalty claims in relation to recordings made by the Jimi Hendrix Experience in return for “significant monetary consideration”.
