04/25/07 - Beyonce Withdraws Deluxe Edition Due To Lawsuit
Beyonce Withdraws Deluxe Edition Due To Lawsuit
25 April 2007 Beyonce Knowles has withdrawn the deluxe edition of her latest album B'Day from sale, after British singer Des'ree launched a lawsuit, accusing her of ignoring copyright rules. Des'ree filed a lawsuit in Manhattan, New York last Wednesday, alleging Knowles never obtained proper clearance to use her song Kissing You. As a result, Knowles' record label bosses have agreed to temporarily halt distribution of the CDs that include the track, reports MTV. According to the suit, Des'ree claims the strict terms her team submitted to Knowles in order for her to re-record the song were not satisfactory, so the former Destiny's Child star reportedly ignored copyright law and recorded her own version. The terms stated Knowles couldn't retitle the song or film a video using the track. Knowles recorded the track as Still In Love (Kissing You) for the deluxe edition. Des'ree is seeking $150,000 in damages. |
