Colombian artist Feid and Universal Music are facing a copyright infringement lawsuit over alleged unauthorized sample use in three songs, including the hit 'Ferxxo 100.'

Composer Sebastien Graux claims his guitar loops were used without proper compensation or credit in Feid's songs "Ferxxo 100," "X20X," and "De Tanto Chimbiar." The lawsuit was filed with the US District Court for the Southern District of California.

Key details of the lawsuit:

• Graux met with Feid's team at Icon Music in Colombia (September 2021)
• Producer Jowan received access to Graux's audio files during a Miami meeting
• "Ferxxo 100" has garnered over 444 million Spotify streams and 245 million YouTube views
• Sky Rompiendo's company allegedly made an unfavorable compensation proposal
• No resolution has been reached to date

The defendants named in the lawsuit include:

• Universal Music Group
• Icon Music (Colombian label)
• Producers Sky Rompiendo and Jowan

Graux, whose work has been featured by artists like Don Toliver, NBA YoungBoy, and Ricky Martin, is seeking:

• Compensatory or statutory damages
• Producer credit on all three songs
• Attorney fees compensation

Despite attempts to resolve the dispute outside of court, negotiations were unsuccessful, leading to this legal action.
