Beyonce Sued Again For Copyright
Infringement In Using Academy Award Nominated Footage In
Music Video Without Permission

Chronic copyright thief Beyonce has been
sued again. Beyonce promised to pay the standard licensing
fees to use footage from the Academy Award nominated
documentary "Trouble The Water" in her "Formation" music
video. The footage in question was shot by Kimberly Roberts,
when she and her husband decided to ride out Hurricane
Katrina in New Orleans, Louisiana. However, Beyonce reneged
on the agreement.
Beyonce has also used Roberts' footage for a
number of items, such as live performances, which is not
approved by the licensing agreement that she has failed to
honor. This misconduct constitutes copyright infringement.
Beyonce does not have the right to use other people's
footage however she pleases. Beyonce knows better. However,
she and her camel face husband, rapper Jay Z, constantly
lie, rob, steal and defraud people at every turn.
Their criminal mindset was exposed in a
deposit of athlete Alex Rodriguez, whom unintelligent Jay Z
gave very bad advice. Idiotic Jay Z told Rodriguez, a
multi-millionaire, that he did not have to pay his attorney.
Jay Z's advice was erroneous, fraudulent and downright
stupid. Rodriguez's attorney sued him for $400,000 to
recouped the legal fees and for punitive damages. Rodriguez
would have had to pay less money had he just paid his
attorneys fees from the outset.
And the moral of the story is, don't take
advice from a thieving idiot. Jay Z and Beyonce have created
a trail of fraud and financial theft. They have committed
serious financial crimes that constitute felonies. Do not
follow their example, as it is going to catch up to them and
will catch up to you as well.

As Messy Mya lawsuit settles, another New Orleans
artist sues Beyonce
Updated Feb 6, 6:58 PM; Posted Feb 6, 6:40
PM - Beyonce is at the center of yet another federal lawsuit
in connection to her 2016 hit song, "Formation," this time
accused by the star of the Oscar-nominated Hurricane Katrina
documentary "Trouble the Water." The lawsuit was filed one
day before the singer settled a separate year-long lawsuit
that claimed Beyonce did not have permission to use the
voice of late New Orleans bounce artist Messy Mya in the
"Formation" and "Lemonade" recordings and music videos...
In a lawsuit filed Sunday, local rapper
Kimberly Roberts claims Beyonce violated a contract for the
use of the footage Roberts shot during Katrina and that was
later used in "Trouble the Water." According to the lawsuit,
Beyonce agreed to pay Roberts royalty fees as well as a
fixed amount to use footage from her film in the "Formation"
music video. However, the lawsuit claims the singer only
paid Roberts for the initial licensing agreement and has
since failed to pay her for royalties.
Additionally, the lawsuit claims Beyonce has
broken the contract by using clips from Roberts' documentary
in other mediums, including in the audio recordings of
"Formation" and during live performances...
