Singer Bruno K, real name Bruno Kiggundu, has secured Shs130 million in compensation for copyright infringement and unauthorized royalty collection by his former management, Black Market Records.

Bruno K’s dispute with Black Market Records began when he left the label, only to discover that they continued to claim ownership of his music, profiting from his YouTube channel and streaming royalties. To reclaim his rights, the singer took legal action against his former management.

On Wednesday, the court delivered its ruling, ordering Black Market Records to cease all copyright claims on Bruno K’s music.

The court also ruled that the label must pay Bruno K Shs100 million in general damages and an additional Shs30 million in aggravated damages for illegally collecting royalties from his work.

Additionally, a 14% annual interest rate will be applied to the owed amount if Black Market Records fails to pay in time.

Bruno K took to social media to express his gratitude to key figures who supported him, including UNMF president Eddy Kenzo and his legal team.

“I would like to thank my brother Eddy Kenzo, mummy Esther, and the Uganda Musicians Federation for appointing @FERDINANDIUS as my lawyer in the case against Black Market Records. Ferdinand, I am so proud of you, bro. Today, you proved that you are truly a Harvard master’s degree holder!” Bruno K wrote.
