From the article:

The law firm of Hendricks & Lewis represented George Clinton from 2005 until 2008. During the time they were his lawyers, they helped Clinton reclaim ownership of his masters. However, Hendricks & Lewis claim they are owed $1.3 million from the artist. The two parties have been battling it out in court for some time and Clinton just lost this battle. A judge has authorized the sale of four Clinton recordings. Clinton is being forced to sell “One Nation Under A Groove,” “The Electric Spanking of War Babies,” “Uncle Jam Wants You” and “Hardcore Jollies.”

He lost rights to the sampling of songs such as: (Not Just) Knee Deep

Jews been raping black artists since the jazz days. Saddest shyt in the world is when George Clinton said in documentary he has to drag his ass out on the stage in his 70s with all types of health issues and drug problems. and perform every chance he gets just to live. He said he has been performing for 50 years and he is tired. He broke as fukk. Them jews who have no talent of their own reap the benefits. George should be on beach somewhere with his feet up, but he gotta play all these lil ass venues just to survive.

don't read contracts before signing them and don't pay your lawyers, brehs.
