Litigation On Litigation | Ep. 107

Author: Emmanuel Owoniyi June 2, 2026 Duration: 3:09:52

In this episode of #ATTWSpace, we break down the latest happenings in the music industry, starting with the TurnTable Top 10 chart and the biggest movers this week. We also discuss Qing Madi’s new EP and the legal battle she revealed behind the scenes, while exploring the growing trend of artistes jumping contracts and what it means for the business of music.

The conversation then shifts to sync licensing, sparked by comments from Dammy Twitch during his interview on the Afropolitan Podcast, where he discussed how the high cost of licensing many Afrobeats records is linked to ownership structures involving foreign labels. We examine the implications for music supervisors, brands, and the wider Afrobeats ecosystem, as well as what this means for the global accessibility of African music.

We also debate why Lojay’s Moto feels like it should be a much bigger record than it currently is, breaking down its appeal, reception, and commercial potential. Plus, we share our thoughts on new music.
