Songwriter's Lawsuit Forces Halt of B'Day Sales

Posted by Bossip Staff



According to MTV News, Beyonce was forced to pull the plug on the re-release of her recent solo album B'Day. A lawsuit filed last week by singer Des'ree alleged copyright infringement over the song "I'm Kissing You". Beyonce told MTV News the song wasn't originally intended for release and that she had just recorded it because "she always loved it".

Does that make it ok? Des'ree is probably considered a "hater" by all the cult Beyonce stans out there, she better hire some security. Columbia and Sony have agreed to engage in no further distribution of the album or video anthology with the song in question, at least until a preliminary injunction hearing hearing May 4.
