[NEWS ROUND-UP] Mary J. Blige & Jay-Z Sued // Eddie Murphy Denies Batman Rumors // Plaxico Burress Sued
MARY J. BLIGE & JAY-Z SUED OVER HIT SONG » R&B soul singer Mary J. Blige and long-time rapper friend Jay-Z are being sued over Mary J’s hit single, “Enough Cryin’” According to the federal lawsuit, which involves allegations of song theft, Jermaine Jumpp and MIchael C. Adams claim they dropped off a CD at Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins’ office, and that CD had a song on it caleld “On My Grind.”
Despite not hearing back from the megaproducer, they say the track appeared on Mary J. Blige’s album, The Breakthrough, as a song titled “Enough Cryin’.” The song, which was produced by Darkchild, later went on to become a single and had a fairly successful run on the Billboard charts. Adams and Jumpp claim MJB’s song sounds awfully familiar to their “On My Grind” song.
No amount in damages has been specified, but the duo is likely to request something to the tune of millions of dollars since the album went multi-platinum. Jay-Z wasn’t featured on the track vocally, but he received album credit as the co-writer of the song. No trial date has been announced yet.
