In our product, we will have to sign an agreement with the artist 1Mawb to play his music on our programme. We will write an agreement that we can send to the artist, asking if we could have him in an interview, and play clips of his music. Along with this, we will script the video. This would limit the chances of tangents or offensive commentary being brought up. We do not want any of us to slander any people or places which could lead to us being sued for defamation of character.
