Dancing in Fortnite is not with out controversy. Several dancers who’s moves were brought into the game and monetized complained that their art was being used for profit without their consultation or payment. Some even sued Epic Games, the owners of Fortnite, for using their work without permission. Several have argued that this is another example of companies appropriating the art of Black artists and other people of color without crediting or compensating them.

We checked in with Joyss yesterday about how he got into the game. He tells us that he was contacted back in November by Epic Games for permission to use his dance moves in the video game. After negotiating a fee and terms — where he retains rights to his work — they agreed on a contract. Then they digitized a short segment of Joyss’ performance and brought it into Fortnite.

So it looks like Epic is trying to make it right with dancers moving forward.

Congrats, Joyss!
