Tracy Chapman Sues Nicki Minaj For ‘stealing’ ‘baby Can I Hold You’ Song by midehcreeb: 4:15pm On Oct 23, 2018
According to Tracy Chapman, all requests by Nicki Minaj and her reps to get a license for Baby Can I Hold You” in June 2018 were rejected. Tracy who expressed her surprise when “Sorry” came out in August 2018 and got featured on Nicki’s album, added that her song comprises half of the lyrics and vocal melody of “Sorry.”

The lawsuit also claimed that Funkmaster Flex played “Sorry” on Hot 97, and lots of Internet users picked up the song and sent it around. It was also played on “The Breakfast Club” with Charlamagne Tha God.

Love love looove Tracy Chapman, 'fast car' playing in my head right now smiley

The music has been covered by numerous artists (including Westlife), Tracy should have let Nicki cover it as well. Nicki is not new to the industry and ought to know that rights have to be obtained before recording a someone else's music. Now she's gat no choice but to settle the legendary Tracy
