Jay Z, Kanye West Faces Law Suit As They Are Accused Of Stealing Song

A man named Joel Mac claims Jay Z, Kanye West, and Frank Ocean stole a song from him and used it on their album Watch The Throne. According to a new federal lawsuit, Mac says that a few years ago, he was selling his CDs outside the Mercer Hotel in New York, where the trio had gathered to record the album.

Mac alleges that one of the projects producers, Mike Dean, bought one of the CDs in front of the building. He claims that Made In America, one of the track on Watch The Throne is a ripoff of his own song by the same title.
Mac original files for a lawsuit against the stars in New York, and has now taken the case to a federal court. He wants part of the profits generated from Watch The Throne.
