New Orleans, LA – DJ JMK, the producer of Choppa's resurgent hit single 'Choppa Style,' has sued multiple rappers and producers for copyright infringement. According to NBC affiliate WDSU, JMK says Cardi B and Master P are among the many artists who've used his beat without approval or compensation.
The New Orleans-based DJ, whose real name is Kirk Edwards, claims he agreed to a deal with Choppa's label Take Fo Records for flat fee royalties for the 'Choppa Style' beat. He would also receive a 30 percent bonus if the song secured national distribution.
