A musician/songwriter named Edaz Redden is accusing rapper Young Jezzy and has filed a federal lawsuit in Illinois against the rapper.
Redden says back in 2007 he wrote a song called (I Ball, I Stunt) in 2007 , which he then had copyrighted a few years later. Redden says he recorded the demo to shop around to different rappers. Redden states that he gave his music to a man named Kyle Smith who is close friends with Scrilla that was once signed to Young Jeezy label.
Redden states that despite not ever giving Smith any permission to use his track without credit and money. In May 2011 Jeezy released a single with the same name.
Redden says the two songs are incredibly similar and share the same chorus, which is the use of “I Ball, I Ball, I Stunt, I Stunt” over and over again.
He is demanding an injunction against Jeezy from continuing to sell the music and also damages for the copyright infringement.
