Rapper Joe Budden is accused of ripping off a 80’s rock band, by illegally sampling their hit song and now the group has slapped the rapper with a federal lawsuit over the copyright infringement — theJasmineBRAND.com exclusively reports.

Last week, a music company named Woofsongs filed suit against rapper/former Love & Hip Hop NY reality star Joe Budden, DJ Drama and Shady Records in Federal Court.
