Lil Nas X is facing accusations of borrowing album artwork without proper credit as a fellow artist calls out similarities between visuals for Lil Nas’ album Dreamboy and a 2021 single. Sega Bodega, an electronic music creator, took to X to point out nearly identical elements between Lil Nas X’s album cover and the artwork for Bodega’s song “Angel on My Shoulder.” Ezoic In both images, a dimly lit, wood-paneled room features an artist seated in front of an aged desktop, with a glowing figure standing behind them. Bodega expressed his frustration, tweeting, “Not even trying to put a spin on it is where I’m like yeesh… Anyway stream ‘Angel on My Shoulder.’” His comments stirred debate among fans, some of whom rushed to Lil Nas X’s defense. Ezoic However, Bodega clarified that his issue was not necessarily the similarities themselves, but rather the lack of formal recognition for the concept he helped create. Lil Nas X’s supporters were quick to point out that the “Old Town Road” singer had previously shared an acknowledgment of the resemblance on Instagram Stories, referring to “Angel on My Shoulder” as an inspiration or “ref” for the Dreamboy artwork. not even trying to put a spin on it is where I’m like yeesh https://t.co/lY5gkug8b3 — sega bodega (@segabodega) November 13, 2024 However, this gesture fell short for Bodega, who argued that a 24-hour disappearing Instagram Story did not count as legitimate credit, especially without directly naming him or photographer Aidan Zamiri, who shot the “Angel on My Shoulder” cover. To add fuel to the fire, one fan labeled Bodega “ungrateful” for his complaints, suggesting Lil Nas X should retract any credit altogether. Bodega responded, saying, “That’s literally what he did… there is no credit.” Lil Nas X released “Light Again,” the next single from Dreamboy, on Friday, but the emerging tension over artistic ownership adds controversy to what would otherwise be a routine promotion.

Young Money Sued Because Lil Wayne's a Bad Sport!!!

Lil Wayne had a front row seat watching Floyd Mayweather beat Manny Pacquiao. He also watched the Ravens beat the 49ers in the 2013 Super Bowl. He even watched the finals of the NCAA Women's Tourney. And he stiffed the ticket brokers ... allegedly. Tickets of America and White Glove International claim Wayne got $119,400 worth of tickets and never paid a cent. According to the lawsuit, Wayne got tickets for the following events: -- Mayweather vs. Pacquiao $67,500 -- Super Bowl XLVII $14,000 -- MTV Video Music Awards $4,000 -- Heat vs. Hawks $11,000 -- Lakers vs. Rockets $11,100 -- Clippers vs. Rockets $11,300 And this is sad ... NCAA Women's Basketball Final Four -- a measly $500. The suit claims Wayne got the tickets between February 2013 and June 2015. The suit names Young Money and Wayne's manager, Cortez Bryant, but not the rapper himself. We reached out to Wayne. So far no word back.

NYPD Turns Back On Mayor, Again

After thousands of NYPD cops turned their backs on Mayor Bill de Blasio during the funeral of fallen officer Rafael Ramos, many were criticized for the perceived disrespect of Ramos who was slain by a mentally challenged man on December 20. Yet during the recent funeral for Wenjian Liu, the second officer killed during the attack, many within the NYPD was seen doing it again, despite pleas from police commissioner William Bratton not to do so. Officers claim that the Mayor failed to come to their defense following a recent wave of anti-cop sentiments, resulting in a bitter rift between the two. With his back to the mayor, one officer said: “I can’t stand even looking at him. He has no friends here.”
