Today’s story follows the popularly used athletic bike company Peloton and their charged allegations for unlicensed music from Cypress Hill and House of Pain. As of last week, DJ Muggs, a member of Cypress Hill, has filed a lawsuit against the company on their usage of their track Insane In The Brain. As an addition to the suit, it also includes House of Pain’s Jump Around.
Now this is certainly not the first time the exercise equipment company has been named and charged for copyright infringement. Back in March 2019, the agency had been accused with a joint accusation for playing songs from icons such as Rihanna, Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and many other major musicians in the current industry.
According to the new suit filed on behalf of Soul Assassins Inc. , using the tunes in its workout videos without a license from the said company is an outrageous willful violation. Without a doubt, Peloton was aware of its limits and lack of permit to use these said music composition in its workout videos without firstly securing and communicating a license coverage for the entirety of the songs.
