Lil' Wayne Sued! No One's Surprised

Filed under: Legal Matters > Lil' Wayne

wenn20619522__opt.jpg

Lil' Wayne is keeping his lawyers busy!

The rapper is once again facing more legal problems!

Weezy along with rapper Birdman are being sued for copyright infringement by a Florida resident, Thomas Marasciullo. The man is accusing both rappers of using his voice without his permission on several tracks.

Back in 2006m Marasciullo was asked to record "Italian-styled spoken-word recordings" for Cash Money Records and is claiming those recordings were used on four tracks on Lil' Wayne's album Like Father, Like Son and on Birdman's 5 (Star) Stunna record.

It's been 3 years! What the hell took you so long!?

He discovered his voice was being used after his daughter was trying to download Aretha Franklin's Respect for a ringtone, but mistakenly played the song of the same title on Like Father, Like Son.

Umm, how do you even get those two confused!?

What's also inneresting is Thomas' son was fired from his recording engineer job with Cash Money after he started asking for compensation.

Any other family member you want to include in this lawsuit?

Marasciullo is suing Cash Money and Universal Music for unspecified damages.

Hmm, looks like someone wants some ca$h money for themselves!

    WHY MUST THEY CONSTANTLY MESS WITH LIL' WAYNE? WHEN A CONFIDENT, NOTE-WORTHY, SUCCESSFUL, BLACK MAN IS CONSTANTLY IN THE SPOTLIGHT PEOPLE CAN'T STAND IT. NO ONE WANTS TO EARN THEIR MONEY ANYMORE THE WANT TO TAKE IT FROM SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE LIKE LIL' WAYNE. EVERYTIME YOU TURN AROUND SOMEONE WEALTHY IS BEING SUED BECAUSE BROKE PEOPLE CAN'T STAND TO SEE ANYONE SUCCEED. GET OFF YOUR ASS AND STOP TRYING TO RIDE SOMEONE ELSE'S COAT TAIL TO THE TOP. AND FOR GOD SAKE LEAVE LIL' WAYNE ALONE! P.S. F***K THE HATERS!
