In 2019, a collaboration between Soul Supreme & FredFades became an unlikely hit, but things quickly soured over ownership & pub rights.
This is how a musical partnership became a 3-year lawsuit that could permanently alter European IP law.

It's testament to Succession's genius that the finale would deny a conniving murderer, a sex pest fascist, and a backstabbing hypocrite the chance to realize their dreams and somehow half the fans would be upset that they didn't get a * happy * ending.
A perfect comic tragedy.
