Rumor has it that Beyonce has used a sample from the late Youtube star Messy Mya. This is nothing new.

According to the YouTube star's family, Beyonce snatched the vocals off YouTube and used them for her then Top 5 hit 'Formation'.


Source:

“The estate of Anthony Barré — aka Messy Mya — just filed suit against Bey for allegedly using a small, but memorable, piece from his 2010 video “A 27 Piece Huh?” and sprinkling it into her hit song … which has been certified gold.

Barré’s estate claims Beyonce straight-up ripped the deceased artist’s “I like that” phrase without permission … and then went on to make millions off the track. Barré, a YouTube star, was shot and killed in 2010.

Now, the estate is asking for more than $20,000,000 in back royalties and other damages for using some of his final recorded words.”


So Beyonce's team was able to contact Big Freda and get his consent for his vocals but just snatched Messy Mya's vocals from YouTube because he was dead? The family has also stated that they have tried to reach out to Beyonce and her team but have received no response back. So the family has fired back with a 8-figure lawsuit against Mrs. Carter.
