Kanye West is being sued by Texas pastor over sample on ‘Donda’ song ‘Come To Life’
Kanye West is facing a lawsuit from a Texas pastor who claims the rapper sampled his sermon on the ‘Donda’ track ‘Come To Life’.According to TMZ, Bishop David Paul Moten is suing the rapper, UMG Recordings, Def Jam Recordings and G.O.O.D Music for allegedly sampling audio of his sermon without seeking permission.Moten claims West used his sermon for 70 seconds on the track, which is more than 20 per cent of the song.The Bishop allegedly criticised the rapper and the music industry for “wilfully and egregiously sampling sound recordings of others without consent or permission”.It comes just a week after the rights holder of the King Crimson sample in West’s ‘Power’, from his 2010 album ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’, announced they were suing Universal Music Group.Mechanical rights holder to Crimson’s ’21st Century Schizoid Man’, Declan Colgan Music Ltd, claims that Universal underpaid streaming royalties for the use of that song on ‘Power’.The label is allegedly paying Declan Colgan Music a percentage of what it receives from streams, which is a lower amount than what CD sales would have produced.The rights holder is claiming that Universal “failed, and continues to fail, to comply with its royalty accounting obligations”.In a statement, King Crimson’s Robert Fripp said: “There is a longer story to be told, and likely to astound innocents and decent, ordinary people who believe that one is paid equitably for their work, and on the appointed payday.“This dispute has been dragging on for several years, unnecessarily IMO,” he added.

‘Waiting for Kanye’s rant’: Pete Davidson’s ‘tattoo of Kim Kardashian’s children’ divides the internet
Pete Davidson appears to have a new tattoo dedicated to girlfriend Kim Kardashian’s children, but the internet can’t agree whether it’s a thumbs up or down. The Saturday Night Live comedian performed his first stand-up show in three years at the Netflix Is A Joke: The Festival in Los Angeles on Friday night. He was joined by Kim, 41, who supportively watched the comic return to the stage and make jokes about her estranged husband Kanye West. While leaving and getting into their waiting car, Pete, 28, seemed to be sporting a previously unseen tattoo on his neck. Inked in tiny font, the initials ‘KNSCP’ were seen just below his right jaw sparking speculation that it refers to Kim and her four children, North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, two, as the letters appear in age order. If it is indeed a tribute to Kim’s brood, it’s not known exactly when Pete met them for the first time or even how close they are, as Kanye publicly expressed his disapproval of the comedian having a relationship with his children amid his divorce from the reality star. However, Pete was pictured spending bonding time with Kim and Kanye’s eldest child North, with the youngster seen sitting beside him as he drove an electric Moke car at Scott Disick’s home in early April. It was reported that Chicago, Saint and Psalm were also there that day and met Pete. Commentary on social media has been divided about Pete’s alleged tribute to the kids, with one Twitter user weighing in: ‘I’m starting to believe Pete enjoys poking at Kanye!’ Another agreed: ‘If this is true in regards to that new tattoo, it’s saying more about Pete & Kim than it does Kanye. That’s for sure.
