why's nobody talking about this?

pitchfork.com/news/kendrick-lamar-facing-loyalty-copyright-infringement-lawsuit

will this take him out the goat convo?

Kendrick Lamar has never wrote a single verse all he does is sing wit some weird alien voice but yall not ready for this conversation

we need that reference track first

Good. Every GOAT artist should use creative input

Not from a writer

Hayes asserts that he wrote his own song called “Loyalty” in 2011 and, that same year, recorded the track together with Leimberg, and kept the project session on Leimberg’s computer. The lawsuit alleges that Martin had access to two of Hayes’ tracks—the original 2011 “Loyalty” and a remix that was produced in 2016—via Leimberg’s computer, and that Kendrick Lamar’s DAMN. track “copied the entire composition, including title, melody, harmony and rhythm” from Hayes’ work. The complaint also alleges that Martin took Hayes’ track and “slowed it down through a synthesizer and combined it with another sample to disguise the copying” on “LOYALTY.”

Thought it was common knowledge Keem been writing his verses since 2015

First of all you're op

That song isn't available online ,he's probably capping .Earlier Yeasayer also had to drop their lawsuit against 'Pray For Me'. I'm convinced most of these artists just want to make their name out of these lawsuits smh

A fraud

yeah this has more to do with the melody and cadence. Kendrick still Goat for writing his own lines. Hooks dont count

Wtf is this post...

"According to the complaint, Hayes and Martin shared a mutual collaborator in Leimberg.

Damn, I shouldn't even be questioning him then, he's got it all figured out

Edit: nice edit you b****

Some no name trying to get a % off of Kendrick.

I promise you that no name had nothing to do with that classic Pop Rap smash collab

Hooks definitely do count it’s basically the heartbeat of the lyrics

People always try to pull this card on artists smh s*** gets tiring
