Rick Ross sues LMFAO over ‘Everyday I’m Shufflin’ line

(EUR) After winning one copyright-related lawsuit, rapper Rick Ross has just filed one of his own.

20140104rickRozay is going after the duo LMFAO over their monster 2010 hit “Party Rock Anthem,” which uses the hook “everyday I’m shufflin’” – a play on Rick Ross’ 2006 single “Hustlin” and it’s central line “everyday I’m hustlin’”. Raising a court case against the pop crew, a legal suit filed by Rick Ross reads: “‘Everyday I’m shufflin’…’ in ‘Party Rock Anthem’ is performed in a manner to sound like ‘Everyday I’m hustlin’…’ in ‘Hustlin”, is a prominent hook of ‘Party Rock Anthem’ and is an obvious attempt to capitalize on the fame and success of “Hustlin’”.

Last year the rapper won a court case against drug lord “Freeway” Ricky Ross, arguing the First Amendment for his use of the name, Rick Ross.
