Daz Dillinger recently filed a cease and desist letter against Take-Two Interactive Software and Rockstar Games, the makers of Grand Theft Auto 5, according to tmz.com.

“C-Walk” and “Nothin’ But the Cavi Hit,” which appear in the video game, were used after Daz reportedly turned down an “offensively low offer of $4,271.000 for both songs,” according to the letter, as per tmz.com. 

Daz is demanding a better offer from the video game makers or a recall and destruction of all unsold copies of the video game, according to tmz.com.

Daz spoke with tmz.com about this. 

“[It’s about] respecting an artist’s work,” Daz said to tmz.com. “Rockstar didn’t do that here and I can’t let them get away with it.”

Daz and his attorneys have provided Rockstar and Take-Two Interactive Software with 14 days to comply with demands or to provide an offer that they can agree upon.
