Around this time last year, Frank Ocean sued producer Om’Mas Keith for claiming multiple credits on his album Blonde, and Keith countersued claiming Ocean released a number of songs without his permission and without royalties.

It is now being reported that both men have dropped their lawsuits against each other. According to sources, there are court documents that state Ocean and Keith reached a “negotiated settlement executed by them” that dismisses all claims in both cases. It also states the two paid their own legal fees.

In other music news, Soulja Boy may very well be responsible for Travis Scott and Quavo’s collaborative album Huncho Jack.
