Eminiem Sues Apple

Rapper Eminem’s publishing company, Eight Mile Style, is suing Apple over unauthorized use of one of his songs. The suit claims that Apple used the song “Lose Yourself” in a recent commercial that ran for several weeks on MTV as well being available from Apple’s website without getting correct authorization for it’s use.

“Eminem has never nationally endorsed any commercial products and … even if he were interested in endorsing a product, any endorsement deal would require a significant amount of money, possibly in excess of $10 million,” according to the 15-page lawsuit filed Friday in U.S. District Court in Detroit.
