Kaskade’s Six-Figure Salary Finally Revealed As DJ Sues KAOS! (via CelebMagTM)
, who is a well-known entrepreneur and film producer. Raddon attended university at Brigham Young University, from 1989 to 1990, while working as a DJ to brush up on his skills. In 1990, Raddon went to Japan to serve a two-year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
After his return, the young DJ moved to Salt Lake City and enrolled in the University of Utah.Raddon’s personal website biography reports that the name Kaskade came from a nature book where the DJ saw a waterfall, “cascade,” and he then decided to change the spelling to make it unique. Raddon released his first musical single, “What I Say,” in 2001. Raddon broke Billboard’s Top 10 Hot Dance Club Play list by reaching No.5 with another single, “Steppin’ Out.” From there, Raddon continued to see growing success. in 2006, the DJ signed with Ultra Records, which is the label he still works with to this day. In 2019, Raddon signed a contract with the Las Vegas Palm’s Casino’s KAOS night club, a contract which should have netted the star over $7 million.In April 2019, the KAOS club opened as part of a massive $690 million renovation to the hotel and casino. Kaskade was signed on to perform exclusive shows. In the contract, Raddon was required to not play any concerns within 100 miles of Las Vegas for the duration of the contract. But the clubCourt filings against the KAOS club now show that each gig was worth approximately $214,000.that the filings have revealed his salary, claiming that the revelation of his show’s value robs him of bargaining power in future negotiations for gigs. Lawyers for Raddon filed suit against the limited partnership that represents KAOS, FP Holdings, claiming breach of contract. 37 shows remained on the contract, and lawyers for Raddon claim that resulted in $7.95 million in lost wages.While the contract may seem cut-and-dry from the outside, lawyers representing FP Holdings have requested information from Raddon. They are demanding documents showing how much income Raddon was able to make up during the period of canceled gigs, and they’re requesting proof of any communications between Raddon and Wynn, Hakkasan, or Tao. Raddon’s lawyers fired back that the request was, “overbroad and unduly burdensome.” Lawyer for Raddon,sought to deny FP Holdings’ request for the information, “on the ground that it calls for the production of documents that are not relevant to the claims or defenses of any party and it is not reasonable counted [to uncover] any admissible evidence.”“any damages Plaintiffs seek should be offset by performance fees [Raddon] earned from other shows [his team] were able to book during the subject time period once they terminated the agreement.” This is a common play by businesses when debating terms of a contract after terminating it. The business will want to claim that, since the artist was not working gigs with them, they should have been free to seek work elsewhere and therefore the business would not be liable for lost wages.This argument often falls shorts with artists and performers who can be boxed in by the requirements of the contract, which they are often still required to adhere to even once it stops generating income if the duration of the contract has not expired. For instance, Raddon was unable to play shows within 100 miles of Las Vegas for the duration of the contract, so reasonably seeking make up work would have been difficult. And lawyers say that the onus remains on the former employer to fulfill the contract if, through no fault of their own, the performer is not able to earn income through that contract. The accepted rule is that the promoter pays the full fee of the contract., “the contract clearly states exactly what damages Plaintiffs are entitled to in the event of a material breach by your client and Plaintiffs remain fully entitled to that relief regardless of any other performances held after the agreement was terminated.Still in early stages, the lawsuit will continue to be a back-and-forth between lawyers for Raddon and FP Holdings. While the contract does seem to suggest that the hotel will be required to pay Raddon lost wages, they will continue to argue that the DJ was able to support himself despite the contract termination. This is an ongoing story that will continue to develop over time.
