Lil’ Wayne Sued For Copyright Infringement?

Rumor has it, Thomas Marasciullo claims his voice was used without his permission on "Like Father, Like Son" such as “Respect” as well as tracks from Birdman’s 2007 album, 5 Star Stunna, according to BBC News.

Marasciullo said Lil’ Wayne and Birdman asked him to record some “Italian-styled spoken word recordings” back in 2006. He wasn’t aware the recordings were actually used on the albums until his daughter stumbled across the song “Respect” when trying to download a ringtone.

In addition to Weezy, it is said that Marasciullo is also suing Birdman and Cash Money Records as well as various music distribution outlets for unspecified damages.
