Another day, another lawsuit!

T.I. is being sued by rapper Motoe Blizzid, real name Nathan Filby, for Copyright Infringement. According to the lawsuit, T.I.'s 2006 Grammy-award winning song "What You Know" uses substantial portions of Filby's 2004 track entitled Reverence. Filby says the evidence is irrefutable from the "same rate of harmonic range" of the sounds to their "virtually identical core harmonic progression of descending 4ths" and "nearly identical instrumental melodic lines in terms of pitch, shape, and rhythm.

Filby, who has performed with Snoop Dogg and Ludacris, is requesting a jury trial against TI, real name Clifford Harris, Jr. He's seeking damages and profits derived from the song. TI is currently in a halfway house near his home in Atlanta, Georgia after serving time behind bars for weapons possession.

In other news a producer has revealed Tip working on his new album (anyone's surprised?)

Via Rap up :
It doesn't seem like he missed a beat," Jonsin said in an interview. "He was so upbeat, his spirits were up, and he's excited to be out and working. He hasn't changed, he sounded exactly like he did when I talked to him months before he went in. He's back in the studio. I sent him some music via email. He can work during the week and not on the weekend, I believe. He's definitely working on an album for this year right now."
