Members of the rap group Run-DMC are suing Amazon and Walmart for $50 million for trademark infringement.
The suit, filed Thursday in federal court in New York, accuses the retailers of manufacturing, marketing and selling products with the group's trademarked name, including glasses, hats, T-shirts and wallets.
Run-DMC says in the suit that it has made $100 million on trademarked products over the years, including a $1.6 million sneaker deal with Adidas. "The brand is extremely valuable," the suit said.
