50 Cent sued for copyright infringement

It looks like there's a pretty good chance that 50 Cent may have to fork over a few dollars for misappropriating some music.

Unlike many frivolous suits where some guy sitting in his basement claims to have written some lyrics or song snippet that suddenly became famous, the music in question was published in 1994 by 2 Live Crew and the similarities are unquestionable.

Have to keep a watch on this because not only would it cost 50 more than a few bucks but it would be a big hit to his credibility as well...
