Kemar 'Flava' McGregor suing VP records for copyright infringement on seven songs

Kemar 'Flava' McGregor is suing VP Records once again, this time for what he alleges is the company's "blatant and purposeful" copyright infringement on seven songs, including tracks voiced by American singers Musiq Soulchild and Syleena Johnson and Jamaican artists Beres Hammond, Gyptian, Jah Cure, Duane Stephenson, and Elephant Man.

According to court records obtained by DancehallMag, the Florida-based Jamaican producer, who is representing himself in the action, is demanding a bench trial and over 10 million US dollars in damages, profits, costs, and interest.

The lawsuit was filed in a U.S. District Court in Florida last month by McGregor, Stephan Warren, and Rogier Sjardijn.

Also named as Defendants are VP's publishing subsidiaries STB Music Inc. and Greensleeves Publishing and its executives Chris Chin, Randy Chin, and Patricia Chin.
