Today we are sad to share that our sincere hope to join together with Anita White in unity and common purpose has ended. She and her team have demanded a $10 million payment, so reluctantly we have come to the conclusion that we need to ask a court to affirm our right to continue to use the name Lady A, a trademark we have held for many years. It was a stirring in our hearts and reflection on our own blindspots that led us to announce a few weeks ago that we were dropping the word “Antebellum” from our name and moving forward using only the name so many of our fans already knew us by.
Sounds like Lady Antebellum have a legal leg to stand on.

Okay, in their statement, the band says they've held the trademark to the phrase 'Lady A' for many years. I don't recall them ever calling themselves that before (although I could be wrong on that).
At any rate, this is HUGELY bad optics for the band. They started off with such a hatefully racist name - at least according to the woke left - and now they're going to steamroll a black performer with presumably less clout?!
They are screwing the pooch all over the place on this one.Sheesh.
You can’t make this shit up. They are oppressing the minority woman in a claim to not be offensive to minorities.
In other news the Lady A blues singer has probably been selling a lot more albums
This put a huge smile on my face. It's going to redpill so many leftists and liberals. The irony here is just out of this world.
I think they need to have a "Name Our Band" contest for the white kids.
I'm voting for "Auntie Bellum"
how about "We Kneel, because of our whiteness"
Imagine if Johnny Rebel were still around today. They would have a heart attack, lol.

Go ahead, change the names. I'll be there to spam the old ones back at you.
Will never listen to their garbage again.
Wait. You've actually listened to them?
how is this reality?
Lady A-Hole.
Yeah my first thought was Lady A sounds like A is short for anus or asshole.

Liberals really are a special breed.
Wow already changed on Pandora. Wokeism is getting out of hand.
