Hall & Oates Is Over, Says John Oates After Music Partner Of 50 Years, Daryl Hall, Files Lawsuit Against Him

Singer John Oates said it is time to move on after his five-decade-long career with Daryl Hall in Hall & Oates.

Last week, Hall filed a lawsuit against Oates seeking to bar the sale of their music together.

“I have an amazing, amazing amount of respect, and I’m really, really thankful for the success that Daryl and I have had,” the musician told Entertainment Tonight. “We’ve done something over a 50-year period of time that not many people ever can say they’ve done in their lives or careers.”

“It’s been a great thing for me to do, I’m really proud of it, and I’m really happy about it,” he continued. “And I know that those songs are going to live forever.”

Despite having expressed pride in his legacy, Oates made it clear that he does not see himself as very nostalgic.

“I’ve moved on. I moved on in a big way. I’ve got other things I’m doing,” Oates stated.

Last week, Oates was revealed to be the anteater on the season ten semifinals of The Masked Singer, during which he performed Chuck Berry’s “Johnny B. Goode.”

Hall filed an undisclosed complaint against Oates on November 16, as well as a motion for a temporary restraining order. This lawsuit had been confirmed by the Nashville Chancery Court and the order was scheduled to start on November 30.

Hall filed a first-person declaration against Oates. He was accused of bombarding Hall with plans to sell Oates’ half of their company, Whole Oats Enterprises, LLP, to Primary Wave IP Investment Management LLC, a third-party organization. Hall felt that doing this would violate a business agreement they already reached during an agreement in 2021.
