Calcutta, India/Houston, TX, September 13, 2002 … Turns out the singer who bills herself as Truth Hurts WILL BE hurt by the truth! Her song "Addicted," which has been steadily climbing U.S. urban charts and has been
a huge success outside the United States, has unauthorized samples from an Indian movie soundtrack owned by Saregama India Limited, an RPG Group company, based in Calcutta, India.

Entertainment Attorney Dedra Davis (www.musiclw.com), a U.S. based attorney, filed a copyright infringement suit on September 12th, against Dr. Dre, Aftermath, Interscope and Universal Music Group, after repeated
attempts at resolving the matter.

Attorney Davis, on behalf of her client, requests, in the legal document, that every copy of the infringing work, “Addictive,” is impounded and removed from the stores, internet, radio, television, and any other medium.
Attorney Davis requested that an injunction be granted to stop the continuation of the infringement, that ALL the profits be handed over to her client, that the court make a declaration of the ownership of the composition “Addictive,” and in addition to the other remedies given by the Copyright Act, that punitive damages (punishment) be given in an amount
(no less than $500,000,000.00) that would send a message to Dr. Dre, and company, that would serve to deter them from continuing to engage in their unlawful behavior.

The lawsuit is in response to the flagrant disregard, and disrespect, for Attorney Davis’ client’s religious beliefs, culture and ownership of the copyright. Some of the lyrics in “Addictive” are obscene and offensive,
and cause extreme offense, to the company’s owners and to the sensibilities of many Hindi and Muslim people. Saregama India Limited has been in existence for over 90 years, and the misuse of the company’s copyright
threatens its reputation and standing.

The idea of including the track was that of producer DJ Quik, who underlaid the Hindi track, "Thoda Resham Lagta Hai," and later vocals were added with a rap from artist Rakim. The original composition was in the movie
"Jyoti" (Pramod Films), and the name of the artist singing the song that was sampled, "Thoda Resham Lagta Hai," from the movie soundtrack is Lata Mangeshkar.
