According to a
press
release issued by Pina records, reggaeton recording artist
Tony Dize has been sued by the record label for
$17.000.000,00.
Rafy Pina, owner of Pina
Records, filed the lawsuit in the Federal Court of Puerto Rico
against Tony Feliciano Rivera, better known as Tony Dize.
The suit alleges that Rivera was in breach of contract and
other damages. |
In the suit, Pina Records
alleges that Tony Dize was given ample time to resolve
contract and personal issues, but with unsatisfactory results.
The lawsuit further alleges that Tony Dize did not make event
appearances that deposits were paid to him for. Pina
Records asserts that Dize was contractually obligated to
record the album "La Melodía de Ustedes", yet the project
remain uncompleted due to what they consider absences of the
artist from recording sessions.
The lawsuit claims that
between April of 2009 and October of 2011, World Management
Latino Corp covered personal bills of the artist, which
included rent, electricity, telephone, car insurance, and
medical insurance to the tune of $70,000 without
reimbursement.
Included in the lawsuit are
claims by Pina Records that Tony Dize was responsible for the
cancellation of promotions in Miami in February of 2010, due
to what they claim was the artist being drunk and speaking
incoherently. They further claim that Dize didn't appear
for contractually obligated concert appears in Añasco, Bogota,
Connecticut, Boston, Santo Domingo, Miami, Guatemala, Lima and
Los Angeles.
Pina Records claims that
Tony Dize "leaked" several songs online without permission,
which resulted in damage to the label's promotional efforts
for one of Dize's albums. The label alleges that Dize
distributed three songs online without permission, which
included “Termínalo”,
“Si me safé” y “Límite de la locura.”
Rafael Pina is represented
in this legal process by lawyers Edwin Prado and Roberto
Sueiro. The lawsuit filed alleges a variety of damages
and author rights. The legal filing mentions that any
person or organization that engages in business with Tony Dize
without the consent of Pina Records and it's affiliates, will
be involved with a contract violation, and also subject to
lawsuit.
