Repeat Infringer Will.I.Am and Black Eyed Peas Settle Plagiarism Case

Repeat Infringer Will.I.Am and Black Eyed Peas Settle Plagiarism Case

wenn26410872.jpg

When will musicians learn to stop ripping off other artists? Will.I.Am needs to learn this lesson well.

As we’ve mentioned before, Will’s been accused several times of ripping off music from other artists.

One of the recent accusations deals with a song by musician Adam Freeland titled Mancry, which somehow had a piece of it ending up in Will.I.Am and the Black Eyed Peas‘ song Party All The Time

You can check out the “sampling” of Mancry in the BEP’s song HERE.

According to reports, BEP member and producer Will.I.Am was at an event last year where Freeland performed this song in question.

But good news for Freeland. The musician has settled with repeated song plagiarizer Will.I.Am and the Black Eyed Peas.

Freeland posted the following message on his Facebook page today, stating “Just settled w/ Black eyes Peas who ripped off Mancry. If you see me in the next wk say ‘Party all the time’ I’ll buy you a beer. Woo hoop!”

Looks like they paid him out a large amount for stealing his music!

Congrats to Freeland.
