Question: Found the following article online, use it to answer the question: What is the first name of the person Michael Jackson did not contact before giving Rhianna permission to sample the line?

The judge ruled that Dibango's claim was inadmissible: a year earlier, a different Paris-area judge had required Universal Music to include Dibango's name in the liner notes of future French releases of "Don't Stop the Music", and at the time of this earlier court appearance, Dibango had withdrawn legal action, thereby waiving his moral right to seek further damages."Don't Stop the Music" was the fourth single from Rihanna's third album, Good Girl Gone Bad (2007).
