'We never even entertained the idea that she shouldn’t also be able to use the name...today’s action doesn’t change that,' the band said in a statement.

Lady A and Seattle-based singer Lady A said they were working together

On June 11, members of the band Lady A renounced their name saying when they formed 14 years ago, they didn't consider the pre-Civil War"associations that weigh down this word," including ties to slavery., saying:"How can you say Black Lives Matter and put your knee on the neck of another Black artist? I'm not mad..I am however not giving up my name, my brand I worked hard for.

Those discussions deteriorated and White and her attorneys asked for a $10 million payment, according to a statement sent to USA TODAY by the band's publicist, Tyne Parrish.

Hypocrites steel somebodies name so you can claim how respectful you are 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

So sad what this has come to. Money-grubbing.

They changed their name out of respect for the 'Black Lives Matter Movement' In an amazing twist, their legal action is taking the name away from a 'Black' female singer that has used it for years. Real life is stranger than fiction!

Just silly..antebellum such a pretty word..rolls off my Tounge like butter

Dick move

Need You Now was stolen from a single mom in Tennessee and they had to pay out of court after taking credit for lyrics and melody that was pitched to them. She had the proof on her flip phone. They are definitely down to tromp over og Lady A they should just be original for once

Seattle's Lady A had this name first. New Lady Antebellum name: 'Hillary, Dave and Charles' (worked for 'Peter, Paul and Mary).

Come👏🏾on👏🏾...they KNEW what the original name meant. Kudos to them for changing it but give me break on them NOT knowing..💯😂😂😂😂

?!

I heard there in a team in DC that is giving up their name. maybe you can take ... nevermind.

oh stop with all the freaking lawsuits people get a clue!!
