Controversy

C-Murder was charged by Bridgeport Records and/or Southfield Records with improper use of the musical composition "Flashlight" as an interpolated/sampled portion in "W Balls", whereas the infringement has not been remedied as described in Infringing Compositions and/or Sound Recordings and/or Records.
