A man has been charged with stealing and selling unreleased Eminem music that leaked to the web earlier this year.

Federal prosecutors charged former Eminem employee Joseph Strange with copyright infringement and interstate transportation of stolen goods after he allegedly sold the rapper’s music to individuals who put more than 25 songs online in January.   “Eminem and his team are very appreciative of the efforts by the FBI Detroit bureau for its thorough investigation which led to the charges against Joe Strange.” 

According to a criminal complaint filed today, Strange was a former sound engineer for Eminem from 2007 until 2021 who worked at a recording studio in Ferndale, Mich., and had access to the music that leaked. After tracks hit the web in January, several studio employees contacted the FBI upon discovering that the unreleased music was available online.

The FBI identified multiple individuals who had purchased the unreleased music including one named Doja Rat, who said he paid Strange $50,000 for songs. Doja Rat stated that Strange claimed to have over 300 songs and handwritten lyric sheets. The FBI also identified several other individuals including Kali Kush and ATL who were involved in a group purchase of Eminem songs.

If convicted of copyright infringement, Strange faces a maximum of five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. He also faces a maximum penalty of up to 10 years in prison if charged with interstate transportation of stolen goods.
