Beyonce in plagiarism lawsuit
Beyonce is being sued $7 million by backing singer after claims the superstar plagiarised song 'X0'
The backing singer Ahmed Lane whose stage name is Javon is suing Beyonce claims that his song 'XO' bears a striking resemblance to his own 'XOXO'. The song which he passed onto Beyonce's backing singer Chrissy Collins was later passed onto Knowles who is denying the claims, calling them "vague and cryptic"
Furthermore according to Knowles' attorney "The two works at issue are entirely different songs that share no lyrical or musical similarity, other than perhaps the letters 'X' and 'O',"
