PUBLIC WARNING: William Moseley & "Kingmaker Music"
To Our Fans, Friends, and Fellow Artists,
The purpose of this post is to issue a formal public warning regarding the fraudulent activities of William Moseley, operating under entities such as "Kingmaker Music" and "Kingmaker TV."
For years, our community has been the target of a widespread campaign of theft, and it's crucial that everyone is aware of the facts to protect themselves and the artists they support. William Moseley was formerly employed in a tech capacity for Dustin Miller (D-Loc). In 2018-2019, he abused his trusted access to systematically hijack numerous digital assets.
This was not a business dispute; it was a premeditated digital heist.
THE STOLEN PLATFORMS
The following channels and accounts were stolen from their rightful owners and rebranded by Moseley for his own profit:
YouTube Channel: "Made for Kings"
This was the original "Kottonmouth Kings TV." It was stolen.
YouTube Channel: "Kingmaker TV"
This was Dustin Miller's personal "D-Loc TV." It was stolen.
Instagram Account:
@KingmakerCEOThis was the official Kottonmouth Kings brand account. It was stolen.
Instagram Account:
@iamcaptaicchronicThis was Dustin Miller's personal "D-Loc" account. It was stolen.
THE STOLEN MUSIC
Moseley has illegally published a massive catalog of music across these channels to which HE OWNS ZERO RIGHTS. He is profiting from the hard work of dozens of artists who never signed any deal with him, never gave him permission, and have never been compensated by him. He has stolen music from:
Johnny Richter, Chucky Chuck, Iakopo, Spice 1, Mendo Dope, Judge D, UPso, Brawdcast, C4mula, Lighter Shade of Brown, Trizz, Yung Zeke, Twista, Oowee, Kurupt, Black Silver, Good Ol' Boyz, SMO, Ballyhoo!, Audic Empire, The Rezinatorz, and most despicably, our fallen brother Saint Dog.
To be clear, William Moseley is profiting by stealing from a dead man's family.
ESCALATION TO REAL-WORLD CRIME
Recently, Moseley's actions have escalated beyond digital fraud. He has now allegedly engaged in acts that constitute mail fraud and forgery.
A fraudulent certified letter was mailed in someone else's name to the CTO of Kottonmouth Kings Records.
This demonstrates a disturbing escalation and a willingness to commit tangible, real-world crimes to continue his scheme.
OUR MESSAGE TO THE COMMUNITY
We are making this public to warn everyone in our scene.
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH WILLIAM MOSELEY.
DO NOT SUPPORT HIS CHANNELS. The revenue goes to him, not the artists whose work was stolen.
ARTISTS: BE VIGILANT. Be extremely careful about who has administrative access to your digital platforms.
Our goal is to reclaim our stolen property and protect the legacies of all the artists affected. We are pursuing all available legal channels to rectify this. In the meantime, please support your favorite artists through their legitimate, official channels.
Thank you for your continued support.
