#HISTORYLANE: JAMES BROWN IS SUED BY HIS OWN DAUGHTERS OVER UNPAID ROYALTIES!

Shocking is the fact that International award winning Pop singer and performer, James Brown got sued on 19th September, 2002 by his own daughters for owing them over $879,307 in song royalties.
His daughters Dr. Yamma Brown Lumar and Deanna Brown Thomas took their father to court over the non-payment of royalties which covered over 25 co-written songs.
The unpaid royalties we gathered was due to a family grudge which James Brown had against his daughters for checking him into a Psychiatric hospital in 1998 over his addiction to painkillers and other addictive drugs.
