Back in March, Cardi B scored a top 10 hit with the release of "Enough (Miami)" from her upcoming album. However, an Oklahoma rapper is now claiming that Cardi and her producers stole key elements of the song from him.
According to documents obtained by Waza, Joshua Fraustro and Miguel Aguilar, also known as Kemika 1956, allege that Cardi and her team used portions of their 2021 song "Greasy Frybread" without permission. Fraustro and Kemika 1956 released their song in November 2021, and it was even used as a promo for the FX series "Reservation Dogs."
The lawsuit also names Cardi's labels Atlantic Records and Warner Music Group, as well as producers OG Parker and DJ SwanQo, as co-defendants. "Enough (Miami)" was released nearly three years later, on March 15, 2024.
