How to Avoid a $250k copyright suit

A few days after this recording, two major events have happened. Ghanaian music producer Kobby Spiky won a two-year, $250,000 copyright infringement lawsuit against the Confederation of African Football (CAF) for using his soundtrack "Okomfo Anokye" without permission for promotional purposes. Veteran music producer Kwame Mickey alleged that Team Eternity Ghana's hit song "Defe Defe" sampled a track by his artist, Hallelujah Voices. He stated that both songs shared identical lyrics, composition, and arrangement, even though their melodies were different. Both parties have reached an amicable settlement.
