Lil Wayne Plays With Fire, Gets Sued

Posted Jul 24th 2008 7:19PM by TMZ Staff

Another lil' problem for Lil Wayne -- who's now accused of ripping off the Rolling Stones!

Wayne -- aka the guy behind the lollipop song -- is being sued by a music publishing company that owns the rights to the Rolling Stones song "Play with Fire." Abkco Music Inc. claims that Wayne released an alternate version of the song -- that they're calling "explicit, sexist and offensive" -- without permission.

They're suing for copyright infringement and seeking unspecified damages. A rep at the label could not be reached for comment.

14. Can't SOMEONE in law enforcement arrest this social misfit for the CERTAINTY he's carrying guns AND drugs? After cuffing this wart on the butt of society you lead him away from the video camera in the police car, swear he tried to grab your gun and put 4-5 rounds right into his heavily tattooed skull thereby improving this country TEN-FOLD. The misguided, ignorant youth who idolize this canker sore make me absolutely sick! They're the ones robbing and carjacking law-abiding, decent people for crack money, 22" rims and gold teefusses. I'm sure that the usual "folks" will disagree ... of course, they're the same "folks" who will vote for a complete FRAUD with the I.Q. of a carrot and all the experience of a child running a lemonade stand.
