Just trying to avoid another "Blurred Lines"-type lawsuit.
Six different songwriters were initially credited for writing Mark Ronson/Bruno Mars mega-hit "Uptown Funk": Ronson, Mars, Jeffrey Bhasker, Phillip Lawrence, Trinidad James, Devon Gallaspy.
Now, thanks in part to the huge lawsuit that won the estate of Marvin Gaye a ton of money ($7.3 million) over the "Blurred Lines" dispute, the team has added five more writers to its roster. Or, more specifically, the five writers behind the Gap Band's somewhat-similar-sounding "Oops Upside Your Head."
It's a post-"Blurred Lines" world and we're just living in it.
Listen to both "Uptown Funk" and "Oops Upside Your Head" below.
