Gaye's Kids Settle 'Blurred Lines' Suit

Marvin Gaye's children have settled claims against a music company owned by Sony over Robin Thicke's Grammy-nominated hit song Blurred Lines, according to USAToday.

The Gayes had accused EMI of not pursuing a copyright infringement case against Thicke because Blurred Lines has similarities to Gaye's Got to Give It Up.


A Los Angeles judge on Tuesday granted Nona Marvisa Gaye and Frankie Christian Gaye's dismissal of their lawsuit against EMI, which is owned by Sony/ATV Music Publishing. Documents say the Gayes and Sony have an agreement and claims against Sony can't be brought again. A representative for the Gaye family said the terms of the settlement were confidential.
