Electric Venus 484 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Christian hip-hop musicians from St. Louis and elsewhere sued pop singer Katy Perry, Capitol Records and others in federal court here Tuesday, claiming that Perry’s song “Dark Horse†ripped off their 2008 song. The suit says that Perry and her co-writers infringed the copyright of the Christian song “Joyful Noise†and have exploited and profited from its use. It also says that “Joyful Noise†has been “irreparably tarnished by its association with the witchcraft, paganism, black magic, and Illuminati imagery evoked by the same music in ‘Dark Horse’.†() “Joyful Noise†was written in 2007 and released in 2008. The song received a 2008 Gospel Music Association Dove Award nomination for the best rap/hip-hop song, the suit says. Eric Kayira, one of the lawyers for the hip-hop artists, said that comparisons of the songs “percolated†various places online and eventually made their way to the performers’ ears. http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/st-louis-christian-hip-hop-singers-sue-katy-perry-over/article_a18ee60f-8f8d-5e5e-bdb1-cbfaff93597d.html Dark Horse http://youtu.be/0KSOMA3QBU0 Joyful Noise https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCcW-guAs_s ha born this way era :rip: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LStephens11 15 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I'm not hearing any similarities? This used to be a bop back in the day tbh But she's already got the #1 and a possible Grammy nod. What seriously can happen? She has the paycheck, she wins whether she copied or not. Karma is a b---h though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levine 18,283 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Even the distorted voice at 1:00 is similar to the distorted voice in dark hoe when she says "there's no going back" (or something like that) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
