Jamie Foxx And 2 Chainz Being Sued For 'Party Ain't A Party'
Jamie Foxx, 2 Chainz and DJ Mustard are being sued over their new track 'Party Ain't A Party'.
The Nontra Records lawsuit which was filed on Thursday (September 18), alleges that the instrumental used in the track was originally sent to J Rand, reports The Hollywood Reporter.
According to the complaint, DJ Mustard sent the instrumental to J Rand's then record company Poe Boy Music Group to act as material for his next release.
The lawsuit states: "Specifically, the underlying material and Jaime Foxx's lyrics contained in the Subsequent Work are identical to the lyrics sung by J Rand in the sound recording of the Original Work."
[related]DJ Mustard's legal representative commented: "DJ Mustard did not grant any rights to a third party to exploit the recording 'Party Ain't A Party' and, accordingly, this claim against DJ Mustard has absolutely no merit."
Nontra Records is looking for upwards of $150,000 (£92,000) for copyright infringement.
