Eminem Sued
« on: April 02, 2002, 01:58:51 AM »
French jazz pianist Jacques Loussier filed a $10 million copyright infringement lawsuit against rapper Eminem in New York on Thursday (March 28), claiming some of the music used in the latter's "Kill You" was lifted from his own work.

Loussier, who gained fame as the founding member of the Play Bach Trio in 1959, claims the backing track on "Kill You" is a little too similar to an instrumental jazz fusion work of his titled "Pulsion."

"The conduct of [Eminem] as alleged in this complaint was never authorized, licensed, permitted, or ratified by [Loussier]," alleges the suit, as quoted by the BBC.

Loussier named Eminem, Interscope Records, and the label's parent company, Vivendi Universal, in the suit and is seeking some $10 million in damages as well as a broadcast ban on the song. "Kill You" appears on Eminem's mega-successful 2000 album The Marshall Mathers LP.

FUCK that shit,just another person who wants money out of EMINEM

Dannm!!!
I would understand if this new's came out 2 years ago...and Em was being sued for it then.
But 2 years after the fact  ;D
someone must be broke as fuck, to come up with some bullshitt.

"Hey I know, let's listen to the Eminem record and see what we can sue him for"

I say fucc that composer.
and understand that everyone will come outta the woodwork when the top is your throne.

Peace

well first of all...

there is no credit for a sample so there goes that idea

2nd of all

the beat is like exactly the same almost, not a sample, more like the same exact thing

Man, this is the 3rd beat I've heard, that sounds like it was just straight JACKED.  Unbelievable.  I blame it on dre's co-producers, they're jackin' beats to get with him.  Anybody know if Scott Storch had anything to do with this? Ha.

Yeah....remember what Mellowman said about Dre not letting anyone bring in material anymore....& that he wants them to create music on the spot so this type of shit doesn't happen anymore.

I think that if you take one of the 'O's' out of 'Good' it's 'God', if you add a 'D' to 'Evil' it's the 'Devil'. I think some cool motherfucker sat down a long time ago and said 'let's figure out a way to control motherfuckers'.
