Ice Spice reaches settlement for alleged copyright infringement on ‘In Ha Mood’
Ice Spice has reached a settlement in a copyright infringement case regarding ‘In Ha Mood’.The rapper was sued earlier in January for allegedly copying a song called ‘In That Mood’ by Duval ‘D.Chamberz’ Chamberlain and Kenley ‘Kass the Producer’ Carmenate.Chamerlain and Carmenate claimed the Bronx musician “copied” the name, hook, chorus, phrasing and tempo of ‘In That Mood’ without permission or credit.Now, in a motion filed in federal court last Friday (September 20), attorneys for Ice Spice, Chamberlain and Carmenate said they have agreed to resolve the lawsuit, with specific details of the settlement undisclosed.NME have reached out to both parties for comment.The rapper recently announced UK and European 2024 tour dates to tour her debut album ‘Y2K‘, an album which NME described as having “plenty of promise but some filler, too.”Her highly-anticipated debut contained tracks like ‘Phat Butt’, the Sean Paul-sampling ‘Gimmie A Light’ and ‘Think U The Shit (Fart).’ It also included features from Travis Scott (‘Oh Shhh…’), Gunna (‘Bitch I’m Packin’’) and Central Cee on ‘Did It First.’Ice Spice is due to stop off in Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow, culminating in a date at London’s O2 Academy Brixton.

Sinead O’Connor’s ‘hideous’ wax figure pulled on 1st anniversary of death after brother complains
her death — at a wax museum in her hometown of Dublin, Ireland.A video of the statue, which was placed next to figures of “Star Wars” characters Darth Vader and Qui-Gon Jin, sparked major backlash from fans, who said that the figure looks nothing like the singer.“Doesn’t even resemble her,” one fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter).O’Connor’s brother, John O’Connor, reached out to Dublin’s National Wax Museum demanding the statue be taken down.“It is hideous and does not resemble my sister,” he said on RTÉ’s Liveline, according to the Irish Times.“It looked like something that was a cross between a mannequin and something out of the Thunderbirds,” he added, noting it was “inappropriate.”The museum confirmed to The Post Friday that they’re pulling the display of O’Connor.“In response to the public’s feedback regarding the wax figure, we acknowledge that the current representation did not meet our high standards or the expectations of Sinéad’s devoted fans,” read the museum’s statement, which was also shared on Instagram.“We have listened closely to the reactions and agree that the figure does not fully capture Sinéad’s unique presence and essence as we intended.”The museum recognized O’Connor’s “impact on Ireland and the global music community” and said their “goal has always been to honor her in the most fitting and respectful manner.”“With this in mind, we are committed to creating a new wax figure that better reflects Sinead O’Connor’s true spirit and iconic image,” the statement continued.
