LaTocha, one-fourth of the legendary R&B group Xscape, has decided to take legal action against popular TV producer, Mona Scott-Young, and Live Nation. The reason? LaTocha alleges that her group members, along with Mona Scott-Young’s Monami Entertainment Group and Live Nation, are infringing upon her rights as one-half of the trademark owner of the Xscape brand.

It all started when Mona announced a nationwide tour featuring Xscape, excluding LaTocha Scott, who was left out. According to a report from Straight From The A, LaTocha, via her attorney Leron E. Rogers, claims that Live Nation and Monami Entertainment Group have been publicly advertising the Xscape brand for the tour without her approval or discussion of financial terms.

The letter sent by LaTocha’s attorney claims that she was blindsided by the news of Xscape signing a contract for a tour without her consent. It also implicates Mona Scott-Young, suggesting that she intentionally chose to interfere with LaTocha’s rights, given her past involvement as Xscape’s management. LaTocha feels that this oversight was deliberate and not accidental.

LaTocha’s attorney has demanded that Mona Scott-Young/Monami Entertainment and Live Nation contact them within five days to secure the proper licensing for the use of the Xscape trademark. LaTocha and her sister, Tameka Scott, secured the trademark during a period when Kandi wasn’t planning on rejoining the group. Throughout this drama, LaTocha has been maintaining that her intention was never to permanently leave Xscape, but rather to take a break and pursue other interests.

Not stopping at Mona Scott-Young and Monami Entertainment, LaTocha has also sent a similar letter to Live Nation regarding the use of the Xscape trademark at the Lovers & Friends festival in Las Vegas.

This lawsuit raises questions about group dynamics and the complexities of managing artistic collaborations. It remains to be seen how the legal proceedings will unfold and if any resolution can be reached between LaTocha Scott, Mona Scott Young, and Live Nation…and apparently, her group members as well.

As months of us are aware, LaTocha has been beefin’ with her group members on-and-off for years now, with many Xscape fans oftentimes siding with Kandi, Tiny, and Tameka. This was evident in the major backlash LaTocha received following various episodes of their “Xscape” Still Kickin’ It” reality series. There were claims of backstabbing, financial theft, managerial problems and more…with LaTocha and her husband, Rocky Bivens (pictured above with LaTocha), being finger-pointed -by Kandi, Tiny, and Tameka- as the cause of said drama amongst the group. So uh…yeah, this latest battle ain’t surprising…not one bit.

At any rate, we hope that a fair resolution can be reached, allowing Xscape to continue making music and entertaining their fans.
