Jamaican Artist Sues Beyonce and JAY-Z for ‘Black Effect’ Vocals

Jamaican Artist Sues Beyonce and JAY-Z for 'Black Effect' Vocals

Ironically two years following the release of Beyonce and JAY-Z’s joint album, Everything is Love, they’ve been hit with a lawsuit over one of the records.

Dr. L’Antoinette Stines filed a lawsuit claiming she provided the couple with dancers in 2018, and they interviewed her for “promotional purposes only,” but the recording was featured on the intro of “Black Effect.”

Stines says she felt “artistically raped” when she heard her uncredited voice on the song and says she’s renowned in Jamaica for her “artistry and wisdom.”

The documents claim that she was forced to sign a contract for her services and was assured that the interview would only be used for promotion.

Dr. Stines is suing Bey and Jay for copyright infringement and violation of her right to publicity. And of course, she’s coming for the loot and wants to be properly credited.

Beyonce and JAY-Z haven’t commented on the matter and they most likely never will.

Tyga Reunites With Kardashians at ‘On The Run’ Concert

Looks like everything is love between Tyga and the Kardashian clan,according to pictures that were taken Sunday (Sept. 23) at Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s On The Run II tour stop at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif. In what TMZ calls a ” chance encounter,” the “Taste” rapper was pictured hugging Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner in the group.

Tyga dated Kylie in an on-and-off relationship between 2014 and 2017, that started when the rapper was 24 and Kylie was 17. They eventually broke up, Kylie said later, after she considered that she was “really young.”

The Compton, Calif.- born rapper just recently spoke on the relationship on an August episode of Nicki Minaj’s Queen Radio show on Beats 1. Asked by Minaj whether he feels he should be given credit for Kylie’s success, Tyga said he most definitely believes he helped shape her image.

“She always had a platform. She was always destined to be what she was gonna be, regardless,” he said. “But when I stepped in … it was like, ‘You can do this, you should do this, you should start doing your hair like this … You need Black people to fuck with you ’cause you need culture’ … I had a lot to do with all that.”

Kylie is now with Travis Scott and gave birth to her babygirl Stormi in February. That same month, Tyga dropped his album Kyoto with the song of the summer “Taste.” The melody was certified double  platinum a month ago.

It’s also interesting to note that Kim was in attendance despite the fact of her unconfirmed secret feud with Bey.
