Definitely saw this coming. Eminem sampled Stylz on his “Rap God” back in 2013, and now group member Raymond Jones has emerged with the lawsuit, accusing Marshall Mathers of copyright infringement. First the diss track, now the lawsuit? Damn, shit’s about to get ugly. No Bubba Sparxx.
Says TMZ:
Eminem is NOT a rap God … according to a MC who claims Marshall Mathers sampled his song “Lookin Boy” without permission — and now he wants MILLIONS.
Raymond Jones — a rapper from the group Hotstylz — is suing Em and his record label for $8 million over the song “Rap God” … which he says features a 25 second sample mid-track.
If you listen to the songs — the music in question does sound strangely similar.
We reached out to a rep for Eminem … so far, no word back.
