Abkco Sues Lil Wayne For Copyright Infringement

Lil Wayne is being sued by the Rolling Stones for copyright infringement.

Abko Music Inc., a music publishing company owns the rights to the band’s song “Play with Fire” and they are suing Lil Wayne in Manhattan federal court Thursday, July 24, saying he released an altered version of the song without permission.

Not only is Lil Wayne being sued his guest artists and his record company, a unit of Universal Music Group, of copyright infringement and unfair competition.

Abkco is also suing Lil Wayne because the version of this song that he allegedly created used “explicit, sexist and offensive language” which Abkco felt would lead the public to believe the company and the Rolling Stones approved of and authorized the new version.
