St. Lunatics Ali, Murphy Lee, Kyjuan, and City Spud Sue Nelly For $50 Million

It lacks the strong sexual content of the Diddy trials, but the things with the Nelly and the St. Lunatics just got interesting.

 Ali, Murphy Lee, Kyjuan, and City Spud are suing Nelly for $50 million for copyright infringement and unjust enrichment.  They claim they weren’t adequately credited or properly compensated for their work on Nelly’s 2000 smash hit debut album Country Grammar.

“Despite repeated assurances by defendant Haynes that plaintiffs would receive their writing credit and publishing income for creating the Original Compositions, plaintiffs, sometime in 2020, eventually discovered that defendant Haynes had been lying to them the entire time,” the lawsuit reads. “Plaintiffs eventually discovered that not only did they not receive any credit as authors and/or creators of the Original Compositions, but that defendant Haynes, and others, took full credit for creating the Original Compositions contained in the Infringing Album.”

Nelly, who recently had a child with Ashanti, has yet to comments
