Written by laserteam on January 6, 2020
Miley Cyrus has settled a massive multi-million dollar lawsuit over her 2013 single, “We Can’t Stop.”
The lawsuit, filed in 2018, was made by Jamaican songwriter Michael May, who alleged that “We Can’t Stop” replicated his 1988 track “We Run Things.”
May accused Cyrus and her label RCA Records, owned by Sony Corp, of misappropriating material including the phrase “We run things. Things no run we,” which she sang as “We run things. Things don’t run we.”
