Nicki Minaj's hit song 'Starship' copyright violation dispute


Nicki Minaj 'Starship' MV

Nicki Minaj has been sued by an artist who didn’t use his real name in Chicago. This mysterious man, Clive Tanaka, claimed that Nicki and her team copied his music ‘New Chicago’ from 2011. He is an underground artist who has never performed in public, Chicago Tribune reported.  

Tanaka said that Nicki and her collaboration team for the song 'Starship' would have been aware of his song since it had been used in multiple TV ads in Sweden,  and had hundreds of thousands of Youtube plays.
