Mick Jagger Is Pissed!
The music publishing company that owns the rights to the song “Play With Fire” by Rolling Stones has filed a copyright infringement/unfair competition Lawsuit against Bad Boy Rapper (Dwayne Michael Carter). The suit claims the sample used in his “Playing With Fire” cut from Tha Carter III is a clear derivative of the Stones track.
Jagger Theatens To Kick Some Ass!
The court papers use examples like the line “But you can’t blame me if I set this stage on fire” which is a total Rip of Mick Jagger’s famous “But don’t play with me, ’cause you’re playing with fire” lyrics.
The suit also alleges that Lil Wayne uses “explicit, sexist and offensive language” that has not be approved by the band [Stones].
Wayne’s engineer, Fabian Marasciullo, explained how they knew it up front. “There wasn’t no way [the sample] was gonna get cleared and everyone was tripping about it”. But They Used It Anyway…
Well of course… That’s Rap Suckers!
