"Tragedy Khadafi sues Ice Cube and Master P (link)"

A Queens legend who played a major role in hip-hop's decorated history, Tragedy Khadafi is now suing both Ice Cube and Master P for copyright infringement. Tragedy even released the paperwork on his Instagram to show that he's put real legal action behind his claims, that accuse both hip-hop legends of stealing his prior work for their recent albums.

The work in question is Tragedy Khadafi's debut album, Intelligent Hoodlum, that Tragedy believes represents his likeness and therefore is a commodity that he owns. For that reason, once Master P put out an album in 2017 of the same name, and Ice Cube released a new record called "Arrest the President" (the same name of a Marley Marl-produced track on Tragedy's album), Tragedy felt he needed compensation and that the formal lawsuits were his only option.

"Its official they left me no choice," Tragedy wrote alongside the paperwork, "the lawsuits are in #noaurasnatchin," in reference to Cube and P 'snatching his aura.' In other posts, Tragedy elaborated on his position further, saying "As i said earlier @icecube wasn't the only #aurasnatcher and #culturevultures is not necessarily white people or just a white person. So since Master P had decided to put out an album titled intelligent hoodlum I had to sue him as well ... for a mill ... #factual... and for the record ....i tried on several occasions to reach both of these ...so called men before i took such action ...on sum g check shyt...b.u.t im a grown man and this is bizness #stopaurasnatchin."

Lastly, Tragedy signed off by saying "I was told that certain songs define u as an artist ...and that among the many i have made #arrestthepresident and the #intelligenthoodlum are the pillars ...#fightforyourlegacy"
