Producer Darryl Lassiter and gospel singer David Gough sued Fox Entertainment Group, saying they got the concept from their movie “Pay the Price.” Lassiter wrote the film in 1992, which was about a trumpet player. Dallas Austin spoke publicly about the lawsuit saying this: “I’m not going to sit and say that this guy didn’t do his film or didn’t have the idea,” Austin said, “but it’s one of those topics like an army or football film.
