Erica Campbell’s Label Settles $1M-Plus Royalty Lawsuit Against SRG in 15 Days

Erica Campbell’s record label has settled its $1 million-plus royalty lawsuit against former distributor SRG/ILS Group just 15 days after accusing the company of failing to provide a single royalty statement across three releases that generated more than 113 million streams.

My Block Records Inc. voluntarily dismissed the case October 2, 2026, in Manhattan federal court after the parties reached a settlement. The agreement ends, at least for now, a breach-of-contract case filed September 17 over royalties and accounting tied to Campbell’s 2023 album I Love You and two other gospel releases.

The settlement terms have not been made public, and the court never reached the merits of the label’s allegations. SRG said after the dismissal that it was pleased the dispute had been resolved and wished the company continued success.

The lawsuit was dismissed without prejudice, meaning the dismissal itself does not legally prevent Campbell’s label from bringing the claims again. Whether the private settlement separately limits that possibility is unknown because its terms remain confidential.

The case moved unusually quickly. The label, founded by Campbell’s husband and producer Warryn Campbell, had sought more than $1 million after alleging SRG failed to provide royalty statements under a distribution agreement covering I Love You, Lena Byrd Miles’ Brand New and The Walls Group’s Four Walls.

According to the complaint, the three releases generated more than 113 million streams between 2022 and 2024. Campbell’s label claimed SRG owed royalties from that activity and had failed to provide the accounting required under the companies’ agreement.

The company also accused SRG of failing to spend marketing funds it had committed to the releases and of withholding receipts or other documentation showing how those funds were used.

My Block Records and SRG entered their licensing and distribution arrangement in October 2021, according to the lawsuit. The companies ended their agreements in December 2023, with SRG retaining distribution rights through March 1, 2024.

Campbell’s label maintained that termination of the distribution relationship did not eliminate SRG’s obligations to account for revenue and pay royalties generated while the agreements remained in effect.

Those claims were never tested in court because the settlement came before SRG formally answered the complaint.

SRG had disputed the label’s account after the lawsuit was filed. The distributor said it had repeatedly tried to work with the company and its representatives on the transfer of master recordings, accounting and payments, and maintained that its records would provide additional context for the dispute.

The recordings at issue included some of the label’s most commercially successful recent releases. Campbell’s I Love You received a Grammy nomination for best gospel album, while “Feel Alright (Blessed)” reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Gospel Airplay chart.

Miles also reached No. 1 on the Gospel Airplay chart with “WOW (Walk on Water)” from Brand New. The label cited the performance of those releases as part of its claim that substantial revenue had been generated without the royalty accounting it said SRG was required to provide.

The settlement resolves the company’s case while another royalty dispute involving SRG remains pending.

R&B singer Kenny Lattimore and his label, Sincere Soul Records, sued SRG in Connecticut federal court in February 2026 over royalties from his 2021 album Here to Stay. Lattimore alleges he received only one royalty payment and is owed additional money under his agreement. SRG is contesting that case, which remains active in federal court.

The lawsuit involving Campbell’s label ended before the parties reached discovery or asked a judge to decide whether SRG breached its distribution agreement. With the settlement terms private, the October 2 dismissal closes the public court fight without revealing how the disputed royalties and accounting were resolved.
