Lil’ Wayne at the Center of Another Court Battle

Things haven’t been easy for Lil’ Wayne.  The rapper recently pleaded guilty to attempted weapon possession, and now it appears that he is being sued for copyright infringement by a guy who has an issue with Weezy and Birdman’s 2006 album, Like Father, Like Son.  Thomas Marasciullo says that his voice was used without his permission on the album.  Specially he points to the tune, “Respect,” as well as other tracks from Birdman’s 2007 album 5 Star Stunna.  Marasciullo admitted that Lil’ Wayne and Birdman had asked him to record some “Italian style spoken word recordings” a few years back, but apparently he was not aware at the time that they were going to be used on the albums.

Be sure to catch the rapper when things lighten up a bit!  You can always find a great selection of Lil’ Wayne tickets from the best ticket source on the web: StubHub.
