However, according to Williams, he has the right to use the song in any way he desires, as he wrote the lyrics to “Milkshake.” “I wish her the absolute best,” the Grammy Award winner said of Kelis. “But I wrote this song.”

I still feel like in a perfect world KELIS after decades in the business would fully understand her own paperwork

* so now can we 'free the slaves" K Dot?

Can we FINALLY address the real way to SAVE the culture is address these lawyers labels managers etc and these contracts?

Yea, she don’t have any grounds to stand on as for that shit. Chad’s situation is different, but Pharrell definitely wrote a lot of her songs especially if the ones him and Chad produced. Can’t even be made at him for that one.

If she ain't write it or produce or compose it... why the hell did she think she had any rights to it?

Kelis ain't NEW to this business.
