Mary J. Blige, Jay-Z Accused Of ‘Song Jacking’
Written by J.R. on December 23rd, 2008 in Hip-Hop Justice, Jay-Z, Hip Hop, Music News, Mary J. Blige, News.
Two New Jersey men, Jermaine Jumpp and Michael C. Adams, have filed a federal lawsuit against Mary J. Blige and Jay-Z claiming they made money off of their song.
In the fedaral lawsuit, Jumpp and Adams claim they handed a CD to the office of renowned producer, Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins, with their “On My Grind” song on it, according to TMZ.
The incident reportedly happened back in 2001, so the two, Jumpp and Adams, were surprised in 2005 to hear the Mary J. recorded song “Enough Cryin’ on the album The Breakthrough which Jay-Z received co-writing credit.
There’s no word on why the lawsuit or any legal action or ‘reaction’ took three years. Neither Jumpp, Adams, their lawyers, Jay-Z or Mary J. have commented or have been available for comment on the lawsuit, so no further details are available.

Janet you are absolutely deservce to correct Beyonce on her illerate thoughts. just lets you know she really don’t have “conversation” that worth hearing. It was really disrepectfull to even say such a thing with her country money hungry a @@. Janet family earned money quit fast and they were all musically inclined. Matthrew has done worth than Joe, he watches Beyonce tale on stage and appears to get a kick out of it. WHat’s the difference Beyonce. at least joe did not pimp his girls he open the door for all of them to have a shoot not just one child. Janet should sue you for defamation of Charater.
