Offset Drops Lawsuit Against Quality Control Music Over Solo Music Rights

Offset and his label Quality Control have been beefing for some time over the rappers solo music rights. Documents obtained by TMZ revealed the rapper has dropped his case against QC on Tuesday August 8th.

Offset took legal action against QC claiming the label didn’t honor an agreement regarding his solo music rights. Allegedly, they were negotiated and financially settled in 2021.

Quality Control claims, they have rights due to the deal already in place with Motown. Founders Pierre “P” Thomas and Kevin “Coach K” Lee argued that audiotapes made by Offset were inherently owned by QC due to contractual obligations. This also included his more recent singles “54321” and “Code.” 

However, the artist’s legal team pushed back. The “Clout” rapper’s lawyer stated, “Quality Control no longer owns the copyright to Offset’s solo sound recordings and is no longer licensing Offset’s solo sound recordings to Capitol, and Capitol has acquired ownership of Offset’s solo sound recordings directly from Offset.”

Offset recently reunited with Quavo for a tribute to Takeoff on the BET Awards. However, he will not be re-signing with QC as a solo artist.
