Original Story Pharrell and Robin Thicke have been ordered to pay Marvin Gaye's family $7.3 million for copyright infringement, according to Variety.
A jury awarded the late singer's family the money because it said that Pharrell and Thicke's work on their 2013 hit "Blurred Lines" copied Gaye's 1977 song "Got to Give up."
At the trial, Pharrell said the songs share "feel – not infringement," the story says.
"Blurred Lines" has reportedly generated $16.5 million.
Gaye's family had been seeking more than $25 million.
