BEYONCÉ & JAY-Z SUED FOR COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT OVER ‘BREAK MY SOUL’

Beyoncé and JAY-Z have been hit with a copyright infringement lawsuit over Bey’s popular Renaissance cut, “Break My Soul.”

Per legal documents obtained by Baller Alert on Wednesday (May 22), a group called Da Showstoppaz are alleging that the pair unlawfully used their 2002 song “Release A Wiggle” on the aforementioned blockbuster. Big Freedia has also been named in the case due to her song “Explode” being sampled on “Break My Soul” — this is where the allegedly illegal sample stems from.

The plaintiffs — Tessa Avie, Keva Bourgeois, Henri Braggs and Brian Clark — are arguing that their “unique phrases, melody, and musical arrangement” were used on the songs mentioned above. They also claim to have never approved of the sample, for which they were apparently never credited or paid.
