If you don’t remember, a rapper named Marcus Gray sued Katy in 2014, accusing her of ripping off his song “Joyful Noise” on “Dark Horse.” Jurors later awarded him the verdict at first, but a judge overturned that decision in 2020, saying that the rhythm she allegedly copied was too simple for copyright protection. Katy Perry also recently revealed that everyone’s been singing one of her hit songs wrong.
