The rapper, along with mega-producer Mike Will Made It, is being sued by Julius Johnson, who says the music playing under the vocals on Nicki’s track from “The Pinkprint” sounds like a carbon copy of a song he created years before she dropped “I Lied.”
Johnson claims associates of Nicki and Mike Will Made It were at the Institute around the same time and believes they somehow got their hands on his missing hard drive.
When Nicki released “I Lied” in December 2014 it obviously gained attention and Johnson claims when he finally heard her song in 2022, he immediately recognized the similarity to his beat insisting that, aside from the lyrics, Nicki’s track has basically the same underlying instrumentation and beat as his track.
He’s going after Nicki and Mike Will Made It for the profits they earned off his song and wants a judge to order them to stop using it or at least give him credit on “I Lied” for his contribution.
