The founders of popular headphone brand Beats are being ordered to pay out $25 million after losing a lawsuit to their former partner.

Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine were sued by the claimed third co-founder of the company, Steven Lamar, according to The Blast. In a court case that dates back to 2014, Lamar sued his former partners over claims he was owed more royalties from the high selling Beats products.

Despite the lawsuit being thrown out by a judge in 2015, a successful appeal a year later landed the case back on the docket. Lamar had originally sued for $100 million and alleged he was owed more royalties than just those generated from the first pair of Beats which he had already been paid for.

A jury has now decided that he should be paid royalties for an extra three models—the Studio 2 Remastered, the Studio 2 Wireless and the Studio 3. He was awarded just over $25 million in the verdict.

The payments were broken up based on each product:

• $7.5 million for the Studio 2 Remastered.
• $14.9 million for Studio 2 Wireless.
• $2.9 million for Studio 3.

According to Engadget, Lamar’s lawyers were “happy” with the decision, despite the payout falling well short of expectations.

Beats was founded in 2006 after Dr. Dre, whose real name is Andre Romelle Young, and Iovine identified music theft via piracy and poor sound quality on headphones as the two major issues in the music industry.

Iovine once recounted what Dr. Dre said to him about the issue. “Man, it’s one thing that people steal my music,” he said, according to Techdio. “It’s another thing to destroy the feeling of what I’ve worked on.”

A majority share of Beats was sold to HTC in 2010 but the shares were eventually bought back in 2012 and 2013.

In 2014, Apple launched its biggest acquisition of another company and purchased Beats for $3 billion, majorly surpassing the $400 million it paid for Next Software in 1996. Beats had launched its own music streaming in July 2012 but Apple killed it off the day it launched Apple Music. A Beats branded radio station, Beats 1, still remains on the platform.

Iovine was brought into Apple and went on to help create Apple Music. He even starred in ad with James Corden in 2016. According to Billboard, Iovine plans to leave his position which has never had an official title in August, once his shares are fully paid.

Apple did not respond to a request for comment.
