Calvin Harris faces £830k copyright court case after allegedly stealing hit song
14.04.2022 - 18:17 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Calvin Harris is set to face a £830k court case after being accused of stealing his hit song from another artist.
French musician Mickael Zieben, 39, claims the legendary Scottish DJ copied his massive dance smash Slide from him after as he takes his case to the courts.
Mickael, from Paris, claimed his fight wasn’t about the money as he had previously attempted to sort things out with the Dumfries-born DJ but his attempts have been ignored.
Slide saw the DJ collaborate with Frank Ocean and hip-hop trio Migos, as well as being the lead single of Calvin's fifth studio album, Funk Wav Bounces Vol.1, which was released in February 2017.
Mickael told The Sun: “We’ve tried to settle this many times but we’ve been denied.
“If he had been humble from the start and reached out to me this could all have been avoided.
“All he had to do was get in touch and tell me he liked my song. We could have teamed up. That doesn’t seem too difficult.
“It’s going to cost me a lot of money but truth and justice are priceless. I have to fight for my rights.”
Court papers lodged with the Tribunal Judiciaire in Paris state that Mickael wrote his tune 'How Is It Gonna Be' with co-composer Patrice Adekalom in May 2016, and released it on YouTube.
The duo became aware of Calvin's song the following year when it was released, and peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Rhythmic charts.
Mickael added to the publication: “I was angry and frustrated when I heard it for the first time.
“Someone was trying to make it look like it was all their own work.
“It’s good to know my music is recognised and appreciated by someone as famous as Calvin Harris.
“I was going to try and monetise the song but that couldn’t happen after it was taken by someone else. It was wasted.

Tyga's efforts to clear his name in a contest with sneaker company Vans reached federal court in Brooklyn on Wednesday with lawyers for Vans arguing that the rapper's "Wavy Baby" shoes violate trademark law (via Billboard). Tyga, in his defence, claims the shoes are an art project and thus not subject to the same laws.
