Judge Rules Against Trae tha Truth and for Radio One Houston's 97.9 The Box

Judge tells rapper to start his own radio station and says Radio One doesn't have to play his music... but it's not over yet.

According to the site Boombox, Houston rapper Trae tha Truth's attempted injunction against local station 97.9 KBXX The Box has been rejected by a local judge. Trae's lawsuit accuses the station of issuing a ban on his music, and charges morning show DJ Nnete Inyagumia with ruining his image through the accusation that he incited violence that caused injuries to eight people at a 2009 "Trae Day" concert.

The May 14 hearing was called "impossibly broad" by district judge Bill R. Burke Jr. The judge claimed there was no logical way to enforce the radio station play his music and encouraged Trae to just start his own radio station at one point. This was just the preliminary hearing for the trial. It will resume on August 16. Read more from Boombox...
