  1. I hated the song “need you now”…🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️ I never knew the name of the band that sung it. I’m so glad I learned about the “real” Lady A.

  2. It’s a big fucking change I just google lady A and she didn’t pop up it was the group pop up SUCK DEM FI SUCK DEM MADDA

  3. Lady Antebellum should change their name to Lady Bell ( intentionally sounding like Liberty Bell) Lady as in the former name and Bell in recognition of music and together liberate their message.

  4. At this point I think BOTH Lady A's need to rebrand and change up with new names. BOTH. Because the name is now forever tainted with this controversy. To me the name Lady A has too much baggage now and is marketing poison.

  5. I have never heard of Lady A, (Anita) until today. Found her music, she has been around for a long time so she should get to keep her name. She made an image for herself.

    I also did not know what antebellum stood for until today. Why would a group want such a racist name? That was their 1st wrong. They should of never had decided on that for a name. That was just stupid of them. Now to sue the Real Lady A, a black woman, is their 2nd mistake. Time to do away with lady antebellum all together.

  6. Why didn't she put up a fight when they legally trademarked the name in 2010? If the "Lady A" name is so important to her shouldn't she have legally made it hers long before the group Lady A got legal rights to it? Everyone is coming down on the group when all they're asking for is that a judge confirm that they have the right to use the name as well. This wouldn't have even gone to court if she hadn't demanded $10,000,000.00 for the rights to the name that was never legally hers to start with. Look at it without the black vs white aspect and you'll see the group has done nothing wrong here and shouldn't have to pay the singer a dime to use the same name that they already trademarked.

  7. When I hear the word Antebellum I dont think of slavery. I think of a style of houses. Which is exactly what they saw when they picked the name.

  8. Well, I get what is happening now Lady A Anita has been recording under the name because Lady A stands for Anita okay understandably she's asking for 10million dollars well that's kind of hefty all I know is that if she's wins in the lawsuit and receive any money from Antebellum Lady A Anita will have to change her name completely it seems like Antebellum isn't really willing to compromise they want to sue Anita without compensating her any damages in the eyes of the world lady A Anita ain't much too brag about but Antebellum is everything I hope Anita wind in court because this thing is unlikely settled with both parties Antebellum really got some nerve

  9. This Lady A is a smart woman. She asked the country band the right questions, and their lawyers and money handlers scoffed at her. Lady Antebellum should find another name. Done.

  10. The question is simple … did the single singer have the name registered as her official brand name? If not, then it could be claimed that she was just using "Lady A" as a nickname. Either way I think the band should pick a new name that starts with "Lady A".

  11. I'm all for my black folks but they trademarked that name 10 years ago…she's luckily that they're offering her anything to be honest. And I googled their network…41 mil…and you're asking for 10 mil sheesh

  12. Blah blah blah why do colored people want everything in life to change…it's part of America….5,00,000,000 all you want is money. Quit crying and pull up your big girl undies

  13. Isn’t need you now just Allen parsons project’s “eye in the sky” they been ripping off people since the beginning! Fck lady antebellum!

  14. The band absolutely sounds stupid🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️. Keep pushing that privilege 🙄🙄
    Co existing would be making that womans entire career disappear because they can’t be original🤦🏾‍♀️.
    So much bullshit🤔

  15. was I the only one who heard that Lady Antebellum, purchased the rights for Lady A 10 years ago? in that sense they have been owning it for the past 10 years. It's a shame the real lady A did not bother to obtain the legal rights to her stage name and if that is the case then Lady Antebellum owns it and can do what they please with it.

  16. We support you 👍🏾✌🏽🙏🏽 the real Lady A! 💯😷

  17. You see what’s in a title…please give a break….Lady A….a band…the law has no say so in …many John Smiths are in the world…petty…petty…it’s a no brainer

  18. Lady Antebellum is freakin’ ridiculous. Calling themselves Lady A, with guys in the band. 😂 That band is privileged & filthy rich. Let the beautiful REAL Lady A keep HER name, & have the spotlight!

  19. Why not lady Ann 🤷‍♂️ it’s sound cute too

  20. People please stop. Everybody keep their own title and stop this. A name does not make you racist. Things are really getting out of hand .We need to start respecting each other no matter what race we are. We are All created in the image of God. Let's start acting like it.

  21. This is a f*cking joke. Has anybody heard of the band 'New Order'? (Look up the name) Lady Antebellum isn't anything just as the word redskins isn't anything. All changing these names shows is that liberals are towering pussies being crippled by political correctness, and creating more enemies than friends.
