Jamie Foxx’s recent release of “Party Ain’t a Party” assumed the role of reintroducing Foxx to the music world. Now, problems have emerged with the track.
According to TMZ, the track featuring 2 Chainz is under fire as Nontra Records is suing Jamie Foxx, 2 Chainz and the song’s producer, DJ Mustard, for creating nearly the same track that another artist, J Rand made. The lawsuit is irregular and places the blame on Mustard who the plaintiff claims sent the instrumental to J Rand’s then record company, Poe Boy Music Group for J Rand’s release. Rand then recorded the song on his own accord with Poe Boy subsequently possessing sole ownership in the copyright of it.
Nontra Records claimed they acquired all rights to the song after buying out Rand’s contract from Poe Boys and paid for the mixing and mastering of the track. A representative from DJ Mustard’s team says, “DJ Mustard did not grant any rights to a third party to exploit the recording, ‘Party Ain’t A Party,’ and, accordingly, this claim against DJ Mustard has absolutely no merit.”
The plaintiff’s lawsuit demands at least $150,000 for the copyright infringement and also caries a claim of contributory copyright infringement against Fox for widely distributing the work.
Following the initial report, DJ Mustard’s reps clarified their position on the matter.
“DJ Mustard did not grant any rights to a third party to exploit the recording, ‘Party Ain’t A Party,’ and, accordingly, this claim against DJ Mustard has absolutely no merit,” the rep said.
Both songs are below to compare:

hahah mustard gonna have to pay up
No he won’t. Artists and producers get sued all the time out of jealousy. Dj mustard is doing fine. He is working on fergie’s next single (which sounds dope).
There’s no jealousy involved, these artists and producers didn’t even give these people credit. Also, you’re a faggot for calling Fergie’s new song dope (which it won’t be).
fergie is washed up and she pissed herself one time theres pictures
So that’s why he had a great summer. He was stealing from the underground – typical CLOWN

Both songs are garbage, and the artists involved are trash. Next.
Bottom line is: This is Mustard’s track anyway it goes…..If they have the paperwork stating they bought the track from him “all rights in” then that’s one thing but I highly doubt that unless dude was on some thirsty shit when he was starting out with the beats.
Mustard slippin. LITERALLY the same song.
Yeah, Mustard is slipping since he pretty much uses the same sound every time LOL
J Rand is a nobody. Fox is a somebody. There’s the difference.
J Rand is a 20 something nobody. Foxx is a 40 something nobody
Can’t you niggas actually read? Those two songs are both from DJ Mustard.
who’s jrand? ))
Wait did Dj mustard grant any third party rights to the recording ‘Party Ain’t A Party’?
Does this claim against Dj mustard have any merit?
