Let’s get this clear, David Israelite, Chief Executive of the National Music Publishers’ Association (NMPA) says that, “This is not a campaign against personal blogs, fan sites, or the many websites that provide lyrics legally[…]” but, “The NMPA is targeting fifty sites that engage in blatant illegal behavior.” 50 lyrics websites have been pin-pointed and are being threatned to take down the lyrics to some of the popular songs we sing today. WHY take them down…besides the copyright issues, University of Georgia researcher David Lowery, writes that, “there are more than five million lyric searches on Google every day, and 50% of the top results come from unlicensed sites.” In other words, the money being made, they want their cut. For now the notices are merely warnings or, “a precursor to filing copyright infringement lawsuit,” said Israelite. Hmmm, things are cracking down for the INTERNET age.

MMG rapper Meek Mill and his baby mother Fahimah, who have a 2-year-old son “Papi” together, are known for constantly posting subliminal messages towards one another via social media, but in this case– I think they might be seeing each other again on the low.
