Christian rappers sue Katy Perry for 'Dark Horse'
Did Katy Perry and her producers steal "Dark Horse" and then make it blasphemous and fill it with illuminati references? That's what this lawsuit says.
The Christian rapper Flame, behind 2008's "Joyful Noise," is suing along with Chike Ojukwu, Emmanuel Lambert, as well as popular and Grammy-award winning Christian rapper Lecrae, who features on the track. They are suing Perry, Juicy J, Dr. Luke, Max Martin, Cirkut, Sarah Theresa Hudson & Capital Records.
The musicians say that their song has been "irreparably tarnished by its association with the witchcraft, paganism, black magic, and Illuminati imagery evoked by the same music in ‘Dark Horse’.”
I can hear the same beat in Dark Horse in Joyful Noise but I feel like it is a common beat anyway and isn't indistinguishable to the point where it is that blatant. I'm sure they didn't pull this song up and try to jack it.
What do you think?
