According to the TMZ reports, Drake is being sued for unauthorized sampling on the song “In My Feelings” and “Nice for What”.
Back Story
A musician named Samuel Nicholas III, also known as Sam Skully, is alleging that a beat of his own was used on the popular track. Skully also claimed that the sample in question was taken from an old song of his, “Roll Call,” which according to him, was originally released back in 2000. The musician, who belongs to New Orleans has further claimed that he was never contacted about the alleged sample. However, “In My Feelings” was produced by TrapMoneyBenny and BlaqNmilD.
But that’s not the end.
Along with the “In My Feelings,” Sam Skully has been also reportedly suing Drake over the “Nice for What” song and is claiming that a portion of another one of his beats was stolen and used on the track. “Nice for What”, however, was produced by BlaqNmilD & Murda Beatz.
According to the TMZ reports, Skully has sued Big Freedia, as well as labels Asylum Records, Cash Money Records, and Republic Records, as well and the person has sued for damages.
