In this filing, UMG Recordings, Inc. submitted a motion to dismiss the civil complaint brought by Sara Rivers (formerly known as Sara Stokes), who has accused Sean Combs and a wide array of associated individuals and entities—including UMG—of enabling and participating in a long-running campaign of abuse, exploitation, and retaliation during her time as a performer and reality television star. UMG argues that the complaint fails to establish any direct legal basis for liability against the label, emphasizing that Rivers' allegations are either too vague, time-barred, or do not meet the threshold of actionable conduct under applicable laws. UMG maintains that there is no specific connection between the company and the alleged wrongdoing, particularly as it relates to claims of trafficking, conspiracy, and emotional distress.UMG also contends that its name is improperly included in a sprawling list of defendants that spans individuals from the music and television industries, Combs-affiliated companies, and even the estates of deceased producers. The label asserts that it had no supervisory role or direct business relationship with Rivers, and therefore cannot be held accountable for actions allegedly committed by other parties years ago. Furthermore, UMG requests oral argument to clarify and reinforce its position that it should be dismissed from the case entirely, framing its inclusion as speculative and unsupported by concrete evidence or legal grounding.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.637776.133.0_1.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In this episode, Dee Kei and Lu dive deep into the sonic and philosophical chaos of mixing hyperpop, sigilkore, and other maximalist genres — where distortion, clipping, and sheer loudness aren't flaws, they're features.From pushing mixes to -2 LUFS to layering clippers at every stage, Dee Kei shares his firsthand experiences mixing records for artists like Odetari and Barelyhuman, and how that work has redefined his approach to both mixing and creativity.But this episode goes beyond technique. It explores the philosophy behind weirdness, the cultural value of outsider genres, and why trying to normalize everything can kill innovation. We talk gear (StandardClip, Cake, Gold Clip), philosophy (Zen, dualism, the Just World Fallacy), and how freedom from expectation leads to better art.

Sara Rivers, formerly known as Sara Stokes from MTV's Making the Band 2 and a member of Da Band, filed a $60 million lawsuit against Sean "Diddy" Combs alleging a pattern of sexual harassment, battery, psychological abuse, and professional sabotage. Rivers claims that Combs subjected her to degrading treatment throughout her time on the reality series and beyond, including groping her without consent, making sexually explicit comments, and mocking her bulimia. She further alleges that Combs controlled contestants' food, sleep, and movement, orchestrated humiliating stunts like the infamous "cheesecake walk," and forced her into uncompensated labor under exploitative conditions. According to the complaint, Rivers was made to sleep in exposed, unsafe quarters with male co-stars and denied basic dignity and protection.The lawsuit names more than two dozen other parties, including executives at Bad Boy, Universal Music Group, MTV, and even Combs's mother, asserting that they either enabled or failed to intervene in the abuse. Rivers accuses Combs of deliberately dismantling Da Band to assert dominance and retain control of her earnings, effectively sabotaging her career. She asserts that this behavior was not isolated but part of a systemic pattern of exploitation and intimidation that targeted young, vulnerable performers. Combs's legal team has dismissed the suit as meritless and opportunistic, noting it was filed just before the deadline under the New York City Gender-Motivated Violence Act.

Rivers accuses Combs of deliberately dismantling Da Band to assert dominance and retain control of her earnings, effectively sabotaging her career. She asserts that this behavior was not isolated but part of a systemic pattern of exploitation and intimidation that targeted young, vulnerable performers.
