Eminem sues New Zealand political party over Lose Yourself

  • 7 years ago
Eminem's music publishers are suing New Zealand's National Party over allegedly copying the rapper's hit "Lose Yourself" in a TV ad. The Detroit-based music publishers claim the conservative party copied the 2002 song for the 2014 election campaign. The ad soundtrack, titled "Eminem Esque," features a similar beat as the original song. The party said it purchased the track through an Australian-based supplier and didn't infringe any copyright.
