Tyler Armes Latest Celebrity News & Gossip

Post Malone has settled a songwriting lawsuit relating to his 2019 song ‘Circles’, minutes before it was scheduled to reach a jury trial.Musician Tyler Armes had claimed that he had written the guitar melody and keyboard chords on Malone’s hit song and gave input to what became the bassline in a studio session in August 2018. “I was beside him giving input – I was not just someone hanging out in the room, I’m a writer/producer in the room with two other writer/producers working on a song,” Armes alleged.After reaching out to producer Frank Dukes once the song was released, Armes said he was offered a five per cent share of publishing royalties.

Post Malone has settled a legal battle over who wrote his 2019 track ‘Circles’. Which is no fun at all.

Post Malone has called for a court to throw out a song authorship case brought against him, saying that his accuser hid “critical” text messages that would have disproven his claims.Malone is being sued by Tyler Armes – a songwriter, producer, multi-instrumentalist and member of Canadian rap-rock outfit Down With Webster – who joined the rapper and producer Frank Dukes for an all-night jamming session in August 2018. He claims that during that session he contributed to the song that become ‘Circles’.However, in a new court filing, Malone’s team claim that Armes hid a number of text messages that would have contradicted his claims of co-authorship of that work.“These critical documents speak volumes as to plaintiff’s intent on the night during which he claims to have jointly authored musical material with defendants, and also refute plaintiff’s narrative that defendants invited him to work with them to be a co-author”, says the new filing, according to Law360.The text messages in question apparently show that Armes was “desperately” trying to get guestlist spots for two Post Malone shows from his manager Dre London.

The legal battle over the authorship and ownership of Post Malone’s ‘Circles’ is heading to trial after the rapper failed to get a lawsuit filed by a former collaborator completely dismissed. Although the dispute that will be heard in court will actually consider the authorship and ownership of an earlier composition which subsequently morphed into ‘Circles’.Malone is being sued by Tyler Armes – a songwriter, producer, multi-instrumentalist and member of Canadian rap-rock outfit Down With Webster – who joined the rapper and producer Frank Dukes for an all-night jamming session in August 2018.

Post Malone to have a lawsuit over his 2019 hit ‘Circles’ dismissed.US District Judge Otis D. Wright II declined to rule from the bench on Malone’s dismissal motion after an afternoon hearing in Los Angeles yesterday (April 11), but the federal judge made it clear he was still anticipating a trial on May 17, reports Rolling Stone.It comes after Canadian songwriter Tyler Armes previously filed a federal lawsuit in California listing Post (real name Austin Post), Post’s producer Frank Dukes, and Universal Music Group as defendants.

Post Malone is having another go at dismissing a legal claim made by a former collaborator who reckons he co-wrote the 2019 hit ‘Circles’. This time the rapper is arguing that the contribution made by Tyler Armes during a recording session in 2018 was not sufficiently original to be protected by copyright.Armes – a songwriter, producer, multi-instrumentalist and member of Canadian rap-rock outfit Down With Webster – claims that he co-wrote ‘Circles’ during an all-night jamming session with Malone and producer Frank Dukes back in August 2018.When the track was released he contacted Malone’s manager who allegedly conceded that Armes co-wrote the track, offering him 5% of the copyright.

Post Malone has disputed claims made by a songwriter who is suing him over his 2019 hit ‘Circles’.Tyler Armes filed a federal lawsuit in California in April 2020, listing Post (real name Austin Post), Post’s producer Frank Dukes and Universal Music Group as defendants, and claims he is seeking co-writer and co-producer credits, as well as prospective and retroactive royalties and other money owed from the ‘Hollywood’s Bleeding’ track.On the same day, Post filed his own suit, with the rapper asking a New York Federal Judge to rule that Armes has no claim to the song’s copyright and did not participate in writing it.“It is an age-old story in the music business that when a song earns the type of runaway success that ‘Circles’ has garnered, and individuals will come out of the woodwork falsely claim to take credit for the song, and demand unwarranted and unearned windfall profits from the song,” reads Malone’s complaint.In a new court filing (via Rolling Stone), Post claims that Armes did not contribute anything “original” to the song, just “an admittedly extremely commonplace guitar chord progression,” and potentially a “fragment of a guitar melody that Armes claims he sung to Post”. Armes claims he was initially offered five per cent of the song’s royalties for his work on ‘Circles’, but that was removed when he tried to negotiate a bigger cut.Post’s new court documents read: “Armes admitted that his contributions did not even rise to the level of originality, which is also required in addition to the fixation requirement.

A judge in California has allowed Post Malone collaborator Tyler Armes to proceed with his lawsuit in which he claims co-ownership status on the former’s hit ‘Circles’, but only in relation to the song copyright, not the accompanying recording copyright.Armes – a songwriter, producer, multi-instrumentalist and member of Canadian rap-rock outfit Down With Webster – claims that he co-wrote ‘Circles’ during an all-night jamming session with Malone and producer Frank Dukes back in August 2018.When
