Kendrick Lamar is being sued by Woolfsongs Limited regarding his 2011 song “Keisha’s Song (Her Pain),” according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The case, which was filed in California federal court, centers around the song from the Compton, California rapper’s Section.80 album, which Woolfsongs Limited says improperly samples The Alan Parsons Project’s selection “Old and Wise.”
The lawsuit says that the parties discussed the matter in April, but that it was not settled.
Woolfsongs Limited, which manages the works of Eric Woolfson and The Alan Parsons Project, is seeking an injunction and an award of compensatory damages.
