Even if Gordy wanted to prohibit use of any Jobete songs in the film, we need to keep in mind that ALL of Flo's solos as a Supreme, as well as ALL of her ABC material is NOT Jobete, and would be easy to license, especially if Faith actually sings it, and doesn't lip-synch to the recordings. You wouldn't even have to get universal involved.
