THE DREAM PULLS A BEYONCE?!
Looks like Radio Killah aka The Dream done got Mariah Carey caught up in some mess! According to two songwriters, The Dream is taking credit for penning songs that he didn’t even put pen and paper to. Preston Marshall and Demario Driver are suing The Dream, Mariah Carey and Island Def Jam for copyright infringement and want them to hand over $450,000 in damages. These guys claim they penned Mariah and The Dream’s duet “My Love”–meaning The Dream had absolutely nothing to do with it. Apparently, their track was jacked after they emailed it to music executive Jeff Huffman back in 2008, and realized it was on The Dream’s “Love vs. Money” album a year later.
“I sent the song to (Huffman) via email. I never hea rd back from him. (After hearing the song on The-Dream’s album ) I was hurt because you put a lot of time and effort into this. You know, music is my life. I feed my family this way”, explains Marshall.
It’s quite hilarious that a while back The Dream spoke about penning the track he claimed he wrote the lyrics with Mariah in mind. Yeah right!
The Dream should hit up Beyonce for some advice ’cause she’s an expert at taking credit for sh*t.
