Raisen, a native of Massapequa, New York , lives in Los Angeles where he owns a recording studio.[ 1] [ 2] In 2019, he launched his record label, KRO Records, with Lawrence and Yves Rothman.[ 3] KRO's first release included two tracks from River Phoenix 's band Aleka's Attic , along with a single from Rain Phoenix featuring Michael Stipe .[ 4] Next was the single "Poison " by Marissa Nadler featuring John Cale .[ 5] Other 2019 releases included Kills Birds' self-titled debut LP; Buzzy Lee 's EP, "Close Encounters of Our Own Kind"; and a single titled "Mother" by Courtney Love .[ 6] [ 7] [ 8] In 2020, KRO Records released the soundtrack for Steven Spielberg 's The Turning under exclusive license to Sony Music Entertainment .[ 9]
After the Lizzo single "Truth Hurts " was number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2019, Raisen, alongside his brother Jeremiah, accused Lizzo of plagiarizing a line from his song "Healthy" and asked to receive songwriting credits.[ 10] Instead, Lizzo filed a lawsuit in order to receive a declaratory judgment blocking the Raisens from receiving any songwriting credits.[ 2] The Raisens responded in February 2020 by filing a counterclaim , asking for royalties and songwriting credits for the song.[ 11]
