The suit claims that the trio’s release of, “Made in America” from the Watch the Throne album turned into copyright infringement – of course claiming that it was his music. McDonald said that the work was plagerized from a 2009 piece that he released on iTunes.
How much does the man want. About $3MiL. I would have to hear the track first.
