He&#8217;s performed on Jimmy Kimmel&#8217;s late-night TV show and one of his love songs recently appeared on a Top 10 pop chart.<\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"500\" height=\"390\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/a6Pi7n0xX28\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lawyers for Pacquiao and RBM Group International appeared in court in Los Angeles on Thursday.<\/strong> The two sides said they will try to come to a settlement with the help of a private mediator, according to a report from Los Angeles Wave. If not, the case will go to trial next year.<\/p>\n<p>The suit filed last year claims Pacquiao agreed to record 12 songs. RBM said it paid Pacquiao $40,000 for the first two songs, but that he never delivered any of them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RBM is seeking $200,000 in general damages and the $10 million in lost profits.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pacquiao\u2019s lawyers deny any wrongdoing and have filed a motion to dismiss most of the case.
