Thiche, Farrel and T.I had initially filed a suit against both the Gaye family and Bridgeport to set the record straight in a legal context, attempting to officially distinguish between capturing a genre's sound and flat-out copying another artist but the case turned on them because it was not possible for Marvin Gay who lived and died before them to have stolen their beat for his songs. That wasn’t after all a smart move by the former.

A jury awarded Marvin Gaye's children $7.4million on Tuesday after determining singers Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams copied their father's music to create Blurred Lines, the biggest hit song of 2013.

Marvin Gaye's daughter Nona Gaye wept as the verdict was being read and was hugged by her attorney, Richard Busch.

The verdict could tarnish the legacy of Williams, a reliable hit-maker who has won Grammy Awards and appears on NBC's music competition show The Voice.

It was previously revealed that the song had made a staggering $16million for Pharrell, Thicke, rapper T.I. and the record company, though T.I. and various record and music companies had previously been cleared of copyright infringement charges.

The jury decided that the family should receive $4million in damages and $3.4 million in profits from the song, with Thicke forced to pay $1.7million from his own pocket and Pharrell $1.6million.
