In 1982, Grammy nominated reggae band Musical Youth achieved global success with their hit “Pass The Dutchie,” a song based on The Mighty Diamonds’ “Pass The Kouchie.” Three decades later, members Dennis Seaton, Michael Grant, Kelvin Grant, Frederick Waite Junior (Junior Waite), and a representative of Patrick Waite’s estate initiated legal proceedings in 2004 against their lawyers according to court documents obtained by WMV. This, after losing a previous dispute stemming from a 1984 agreement outlining the division of royalties between the owners of the copyright in the original work and the derivative work.
