Limp Bizkit and lead singer Fred Durst are suing Universal Music for $200 million, alleging that the band and possibly others have not received royalties due to Universal’s fraudulent system. Durst’s lawyers claim that Universal wrongfully withheld royalties, with suspicions of intentional concealment of sales figures during the band’s peak fame from 1997 to 2004, resulting in millions owed to Limp Bizkit. Despite some payments made after legal intervention, the lawsuit seeks to void the record contract, regain music copyrights, and recover copyright infringement damages, aiming to recover tens of millions of dollars.
