Kanye “Ye” West is once again in trouble for copyright infringement. At the moment, even two parties are accusing West of using their production in rapper songs.

Kanye Ye West, a record label, has sued Universal Music Group for copyright infringement against King Crimson, one of Britain’s biggest names in progressive rock.

Westin published in 2010 Powera sample of King Crimson’s sample is heard 21st Century Schizoif Man of the song. The song can be found in Kanye Westin My beautiful dark twisted Fantasy from the album.

The copyright guide for the originally unauthorized sample was agreed upon when the composers of the original song were also listed as composers of the West song.

The issue has re-emerged, as the record companies’ original agreement paid compensation based on physical record sales and did not take into account the revenue from streaming services.

Declan Colgan Music, now managing King Crimson’s copyrights, is also demanding revenue from the streaming services to be distributed to the composers of the original song.

Unauthorized sermon

In addition to King Crimson’s lawsuit, Westin also released in 2021 Dondacan be found on the album Come to life has been at the center of copyright infringement.

The sermon at the beginning of the song is by no means on the album with permission, and this has also been noticed by the Texas pastor who is giving the sermon. David Paul Moten.

Moten sued West for copyright infringement, and court records show that 70 seconds have been used in the sermon, which accounts for about 20 percent of the five-minute melody.

It was still unclear in the article on the TMZ website what follow-up the pastor’s demands would cause West.

West is by no means the first to be accused of copyright infringement on the bench, as Syl Johnson, who has already passed away, has accused West of similar acts.
