Guys is totally false. If he wa selfie we would’ve signed the rights for them to be released. 
the demo sounds horrible and there’s no way to know when that was recorded. 
there’s always like 100 people suing artists every day. Don’t believe everything you read

Okay this whole thing seems kinda shitty of him. He signed a contract that he would get royalties from album sales. He complained it wasn't enough, they gave him 25K up front in addition to royalties. He pissed it away and he's still complaining it isn't enough? 

Why does he think he deserved tour royalties? Does Gaga pay the estates of each Jazz songwriter when she sings their songs during her show? No. It seems like a cash grab...

If he really worked on that song of course he deserves the credits he needs to get. I hope he'll get it.

He knows damn well no one is seeing that tour because they loved god control lol if 25k is what the song earned then sorry babe should’ve written a bigger hit. 
 

alas, I sympathize if this is true but I think it’s funny how much he’s thought this out like hmm I’ll take 1% of her recent tour

Honestly what did he expect? A #1 on Billboard? :laughga: it was obvious Madonna wouldn't sell that much. 

I don't think he should get any money from her tour.

The amount of misinformation...it even says "this is a Mirwais problem that’s become a Madonna problem", because basically Mirwais literally stole the song from Casey, and presented it to Madonna as it was, without giving any credit to Casey. But all the blame goes now to Madonna because why not...

I do not understand why he thinks he should get 1% of the tour profits? That does not make any sense. I do not know how the music industry works but I know 100% that Madonna and her producer were wrong  to not credit him. The demo sounds almost exactly like the final song, with the same lyrics more or less. It really makes me think if Madonna has more songs where she did not give proper credit. I love Madonna but I really thought her and Mirwais wrote it ... now their is this other guy involved and she did not credit him... honestly super disrespectful of her to do. I am sure she knew about it too, she is a very smart person who has been in this business long enough. She has experience and overlooking it is not an excuse, sorry.

We can deny it all we want but this certainly isn’t the first time she’s stolen writing credits. It’s just that this time she’s facing the consequences :vegas: I love her but she needs to get her act straight

Because she’s performing the song. That’s how credits work. Every time a song is being performed, everyone involved in the writing earns a profit from it. That’s why Madonna has a history of taking writing credits, to increase her profit in the end.
