Ludacris Headed To Court


Three music producers are suing rapper Ludacris over claims he stole one of their tracks and used it on his hit album The Red Light District.


The hip-hop star - real name Chris Bridges - is facing a lawsuit from the trio, known as the Boogiii Men Entertainment Group, who claim there are major similarities between a demo CD they sent to Bridges' record label in 2004 and a Ludacris song titled Get Back.


The producers - Damon 'Damethegreat' Mayfield, Markus 'Vincent' Vick and Anthony Turner - from Chester, Pennsylvania, insist all of their follow-up calls to the star's Disturbing Tha Peace label were met with a lukewarm response and they were never credited on Bridges' 2004 LP.

They have now filed papers in Philadelphia accusing Bridges of copyright infringement, according to Allhiphop.com.
