Popular Tanzanian singer Juma Musa Mkambala, widely known as Juma Jux, has failed in his bid to block a Tsh400 million ($154,000) copyright infringement case against him.
The civil suit, filed at the Kisutu Resident Magistrate’s Court in Dar es Salaam, was lodged by music producer Shaban Abdalla, alias Keizer Pie. He accuses the Incase You Don’t Know hitmaker of excluding him from royalties on six songs he claims to have co-written.
