Rapper Jay Z Sued for allegedly infringing Streaming rights for Prince’s Music

Jay-Z made a request to buy a few songs belonging to the late Pop star Prince at $40million but his family turned down his request and refused to sell the songs to him. Well, it seems like Prince’s family had their own reasons for turning down Jay Z’s offer. New reports from TMZ state that the leadership of Prince’s label NPG Records has sued Jay Z’s Roc Nation over alleged illegal tidal streaming.

Jay Z and the late Prince

A new report states that Tidal claims to have exclusive streaming rights for Prince’s music which is not the case. The complaint attained by Pitchfork argues that tidal is exploiting most copyrighted Prince Music and that they were never given full streaming rights for Prince’s music. It further asserts that Tidal was only given a 3 months period of exclusively streaming Prince’s 2015 album HITNRUN phase one.

However, Roc Nation did not hold their part of the deal and went ahead to stream all Albums of the late star. NPG records have not stated the amount of cash they want compensated to them by Jay Z but rumor has it that they might demand a fortune. Some of Prince’s albums that have allegedly been streaming on tidal illegally include, Pop Life, Purple Rain, 1999, Little Red Corvette, I wanna be your lover, Controversy, Cream and many more.

DNA test proves Prince is not the father of prison inmate

A DNA test has determined a Colorado prison inmate is not the son of the late music legend Prince, a source who was briefed on the test results told NBC News Wednesday. 

Carlin Q. Williams, 39, through his attorney in early May claimed he was Prince's son, which if true would have entitled him to at least part of Prince's estimated $300 million estate. A second source also confirmed to NBC News that the test result was negative.

Williams' mother, Marsha Henson, wrote in a court affidavit that she had unprotected $ex with Prince, whose full name is Prince Rogers Nelson, in a Missouri hotel room in 1976. 

Henson told The Associated Press in a brief interview that she does not believe the reported test results. 

"I don't believe that. I think they're positive," she said.

Medical Examiner: Prince died of an accidental overdose of Fentanyl

The music legend died of an Opiod overdose. Read the exclusive report from TMZ below...

"Prince died from an opioid overdose ... it's now official from the Midwest Medical Examiner's Office, and the drug is even more powerful than Percocet.

The M.E. performed toxicology tests on the singer and determined the singer died of an accidental overdose of Fentanyl -- a powerful synthetic opiate that is more potent than morphine ... often used for cancer patients to deal with severe pain.

Fentanyl is often used to treat people who have developed a tolerance to less powerful opiates such as Percocet and morphine.

And this is important ... there were several reports Prince had either AIDS or HIV, but the report says there were no "other significant conditions" that led to his death ... clearly refuting the stories. 

According to the report ... Prince was discovered fully dressed ... wearing a black cap, black shirt, gray undershirt, black pants, black boxer briefs and black socks.

Also interesting ... Prince weighed a petite 112 lbs and stood 5'3" at the time of his death. Prince was addicted to Percocet.

His addiction was so bad his people called a rehab doctor in California to get him emergency help. The doctor's son flew out to Minnesota and was in the Paisley Park compound -- with a backpack filled with synthetic opioids -- when the 57-year-old singer was found dead. The doctor's son, who is not himself a doctor, denies giving Prince any of the pills.

According to TMZ, Henson claims that she had wine with the star and had unprotected $ex.

In a signed affidavit, Henson claimed that she didn't have $ex at all with anyone else during the six weeks before and did not have $ex with another man during her pregnancy.

He is currently incarcerated at a federal prison in Colorado for weapons transport, according to ABC.

Up to 700 people have claimed to be Prince's half-siblings in a race to stake a claim on the star's $300million fortune.

The alleged man is in his 30s and lives in the Midwest according to the Heir Hunters and when he contacted the organisation claimed his mother had several encounters with Prince during the 1980s.

 According to the duo the man didn't seem "crazy" and said there was something about the man's case that stood out: 

"The way we approached everything was just completely different than what we had seen. He wasn't looking for that 15 minutes of fame. It wasn't a crazy story and it really started piecing together.

"He's very nice, not crazy. He’s somebody who's not star-struck crazy or wants to be famous. Not at all."For now, he plans to stay away from the current court proceedings, but likely will come forward after more research is done, they claimed. "We're at the beginning stages in a way,” Mansukhani told Radar.

I may have walked away that night with only a handshake, but it was a handshake that changed my life for the better. It awoken a desire to be an entertainer like this Demi god that just shook my hand..

From that night, I became an avid fan. I read and followed any news on him, I listened with wrapt attention. The more I researched him the more I fell in love with him, you can take that literally. If I ever had any gay tendencies, he would have been the one I would have given my body to, even though Prince wasn't gay. That's how deep my love is for this beautiful soul. Rumors circled him because he had such a defiantly outlandish persona with a sexuality as ambiguous as it was voracious. Oh my Prince"
