Posted in Hit Song, Kanye West, R&B, Rumor on the March 26, 2008

One crazy songwriter/producer in Maryland is claiming that Kanye West stole what’s rightfully his by lifting his tune ‘Volume of Good Life’ for Kanye’s smash hit ‘Good Life’. In a rambling lawsuit filed in Maryland District Court, Dayna ‘D’Mystro’ Staggs is suing the rapper and his record label for copyright infringement saying that Kanye “didn’t obtain a license to use ‘Volume of Good Life’” for his tune and even points out that Kanye was only a kid when the song was written. D’Mystro is also outraged because Kanye’s song was vulgar as compared to his much cleaner song. He’s demanding 85% of all world sales of the proceeds from the music that uses his work.
