Tracy Chapman Sues Nicki Minaj For Unauthorized Sample

Source: Stephanie Methven / WENN Tracy Chapman wasn’t that hard to find after all. The “Fast Car” singer is suing Nicki Minaj for using an unauthorized sample. Reportedly, Minaj’s people did reach out to Chapman for permission to use her song “Baby Can I Hold You” for the Queens rapper’s tune “Sorry,” featuring Nas. However, Chapman basically said, “Nah.” TMZ reports that Minaj’s reps reached out in June 2018 with multiple requests to license “Baby Can I Hold You,” which were all denied. In early August, Minaj even pinned her new album’s delay on trying to find Chapman. But then Nicki Minaj’s “Sorry,” which got nixed from the Queen album, made its way onto the radio, with Funkmaster Flex playing it on Hot 97 and The Breakfast Club also giving it a spin on Power 105. The song’s radio play, which led to the Internets grabbing the tune and reposting it online, is referenced in Chapman’s lawsuit, which seeks an order prohibiting Minaj from ever releasing the song as well as financial compensation. Looks and sounds like Chapman has Minaj dead to rights on this one. — Photo: WENN.com

BOSSIP Exclusive: RHOP’s Karen Huger Talks DUI Arrest

Reality Star Told BOSSIP That The DUI Experience Helped Make Her Who She Is Today Real Housewives of Potomac’s Karen Huger is speaking out about the time cops popped her for driving while intoxicated. Huger was arrested nearly 10 years ago for drunk driving after she said she’d had a celebratory dinner and was on her way back to her Potomac, Md. home. “I pulled over,” the mom of two exclusively told BOSSIP. “Technically I wasn’t driving, I was pulled over into a parked area where you should not park. I turned off the car and I called my husband. However, the teddy bear cops found me first, and I collected my DUI.” The reality show star later pled guilty to “Driving While Impaired By Alcohol” and received probation. But Huger – who has become infamous for her love of etiquette and proper manners – hasn’t let the incident get her down, and said the experience helped make her the woman she is today. “I said when I took this project, I own everything about me that makes me, me,” she said. “What makes me this woman people can look at. You have ups and downs, curves. The thing is, in life, you still stand, and I’m still standing.” Check out the rest of Huger’s interview below:

Drake’s Producer Noah “40” Shebib Addresses Ghostwriter Rumors As ’10 Bands’ Reference Track Leaks

Drake’s Producer Says He Writes His Own Raps Drake’s credibility is sinking deeper and deeper into question this evening — now with reciepts. After Meek Mill took to Twitter to out Drake for not writing his own rhymes, Funkmaster Flex hopped into the fray by supplying a reference track from the rumored ghostwriter at the center of the controversy, Quentin Miller, during his Wednesday evening show. Via MissInfo : On Wednesday night during his HOT 97 mixshow, Funkmaster Flex decided to insert himself into the storyline, by playing Quentin Miller’s “10 Bands” reference track given to Drake. According to the DJ, Quentin Miller was getting paid $5000 a month from the Drake’s OVO Sound label, and it was someone from the October’s Very Own collective who sent Flex the full reference track that’s similar to the final version. Hmmmm…well here’s the track for you to judge for yourself: But it doesn’t end there. Shortly thereafter, Drizzy’s producer, friend, and long-time collaborator Noah “40” Shebib took to twitter to clear up Quentin’s role in creating “If You’re Reading This…” and confirm whether or not Drake’s rhymes are authentic. Hit the flip for more…
