    Who Owns the Music? Copyright & IP Law with Benjamin Gordon

    On this episode of the Vegas Law Podcast, host and Sgro & Roger Managing Partner Tony Sgro sits down with guest attorney Benjamin Gordon for a timely conversation about intellectual property, copyright law, and protecting creative work.

They also explore how the rapidly changing digital landscape is creating new questions surrounding music, media, and creative rights.

    Whether you're a working creative, entrepreneur, or simply interested in how copyright law works, this episode offers an accessible look at the legal side of creativity.

    Marti Cuevas: President of Mayimba Music, ASCAP Board Member

    2026-09-01 | 35 mins.
    In this episode of Music Matters with Darrell Craig Harris, we welcome Marti Cuevas, President of Mayimba Music, and sitting ASCAP board member, for an important conversation about protecting music, intellectual property, and the rights of independent artists and companies.

    Marti discusses a significant legal victory achieved by Mayimba Music, J & N Records LLC, and 829Music after the three independent Hispanic music companies joined forces to defend recordings they say had been exploited without authorization for more than a decade. The case involved claims of digital piracy, unauthorized use, and unpaid royalties, ultimately resulting in a favorable judgment in a Miami court.

    We also explore the cultural importance of the Caribbean and Hispanic artists behind these recordings. While some may be unfamiliar to mainstream audiences, their music has influenced generations and is increasingly being sampled by major artists, including Cardi B and Bad Bunny.
