Wyclef Jean Accused Of Stealing 90s' Hip-Hop TrackNovember 25, 2010
Wyclef Jean is facing a 1.5 million lawsuit for allegations that he plagiarised a song by 90s rap group Blahzay Blahzay.
Jean is claimed to have approached the group for permission to sample their 1996 song 'Danger' on his 2007 album 'Carnival'. Blahzay Blahzay allegedly told the rapper he could use the song on track 'Welcome To The East' if he let them feature on the LP, reports TMZ.com In court papers, Jean allegedly never agreed to the terms but continued to use the song. The law suit was originally filed last year but the band dropped the case when when Jean was interested in negotiating a settlement. Meanwhile, Wyclef Jean is currently working on new album 'If I Were President: The Haitian Experience', due out next year.
