Kanye Sued For “Bound 2” Sample

In what is but the latest episode of the ongoing drama "Everybody Hates Kanye," a former child star is suing Kanye West and Roc-a-Fella Records for using an unauthorized sample of his voice. Ricky Spicer of the Ponderosa Twins filed suit in a Manhattan Supreme Court. His vocals were pulled from the song "Bound" and used for "Bound 2" on West's offering.  Spicer, now 56-years-old, originally recorded the song when he was 12 years old, reports the New York Daily News.  Listen to Spicer's song below, then listen to Yeezy's version and decide for yourself. It’s quite clear that Yay might have to break bread on this one. Major oversight to not get permission on this.
