The music moguls had been accused of copyright infringement by Michael Medina, the founder of a New York Latin band of the same name.
The two parties were essentially disputing over their classification of the project. Medina insisted that the project was a music video that was created with his Latin duo in mind due to parts of the film being set to music and various mentions of the slang term, which means “Lower East Siders.” West and Dash consider the project a film that was created without regard to or knowledge of the Bachata duo.
