Juice WRLD Responds To Sting’s Potential Lawsuit Over “Lucid Dreams”

    Producer Nick Mira went on a Twitter tirade on Saturday (November 17), taking aim at British rock icon Sting. He was upset The Police frontman allegedly threatened a lawsuit over Juice WRLD’s song “Lucid Dreams,” which Mira produced.

    The Goodbye & Good Riddance track uses snippets of Stings 1993 solo cut “Shape Of My Heart.” Sting initially seemed cool with the song, telling Billboard it was a “beautiful interpretation.” But now it seems the rock legend has changed his mind and wants even more profits from the song.

    The rapper at the helm of “Lucid Dreams” is taking it all in stride. He addressed the controversy on Twitter.

    “Lost millions made millions…the song impacted to many ppl in a good way for me to be upset over it,” Juice WRLD wrote. “there’s always more money to be made and I will it so [two heart emojis].”

    During Mira’s rant, he detailed the terms of Sting’s alleged lawsuit.

    “Fuck @OfficialSting and his WHOLE team,” he wrote. “After taking 85% of Lucid Dreams (for interpolating Shape of My Heart, NOT EVEN sampling) he threatened to take us to court for trying to get any %.”

    At least Juice WRLD is handling it in a more constructive way.

      1. Who the fuck cares about Nas in 2018? Nobody, that’s who. He just spit the usual corny fake gangster shit over it and Tupac called his ass out for it. Juice World is on top right now and making his money. Leave him alone.

        1. Right. Juice world isn’t going to be worth 60 million dollars 20 years from now, he’ll also never be considered top 10 Dead or alive, ever.

          1. His point still stands, who cares about him in 2018? That is, beyond you tired dusty ass ”hurr durr real hip hop” nerds on the internet.

            Give that shit a rest. Rap has always been a young mans game and quite frankly aint nobody trying to hear yall ”heads” regurgitate the same trite shit yall been typing in internet forums since the early 00’s. Btw, Nas made his 60m off investing in start ups and not really on rap. You should look at other rappers from his era for a more accurate representation.

            1. FOH. Clowns like you are the reason there’s such a disconnect in Hip Hop. There’s music for everybody. Knock it off with all this “young man’s game” bullshit. What are you gonna do when you hit 35, switch up and listen to opera? Shortsighted AF.

            2. These clowns dont get it , it was a young mans game when it first started but weve grown up with it , if being young is their clame to fame that says it all…

        2. Nas is a LEGEND and legendary status is FOREVER!! Prople who love and respect the hip hop culture and ART FORM will ALWAYS care about nas.

        3. And “real gangster shit” isn’t on beats.Real gangster shit is on the streets. Ain’t nobody getting shot and killed on beats

    1. I don’t know what interpolatng means, but it sure sounds like ya sampled that shit to me. Next time get it cleared.

      1. Just looked it up. It’s pretty much sampling by making the sample yourself. Idk why people even need to sample unless.of course it’s to manufacture a hit. But that piano roll is the entire song.
