Lizzo Sued For Copyright Infringement Over Song That Was Never Commercially Released Or
Monetized’

Lizzo is facing a legal dispute over a tune that was technically never released.

The four-time #GrammyAward winner was hit with a copyright lawsuit over an unreleased track fans know as “I’m Goin’ In Till October” (also circulated as “Good Jeans”). According to the complaint, obtained by TMZ, The GRC Trust claims the song, which was teased on #TikTok and Instagram earlier this year but never released to streaming platforms, lifts both instrumental and vocal elements from their copyrighted work, “Win or Lose (We Tried).” The filing also says the parties discussed a license to sample the composition but never reached a deal, and the trust is seeking damages plus an injunction to block further use of the song.

A rep for #Lizzo pushed back, emphasizing the track hasn’t been commercially issued: “We are surprised that The GRC Trust filed this lawsuit. To be clear, the song has never been commercially released or monetized, and no decision has been made at this time regarding any future commercial release of the song.” The trust, however, alleges Lizzo and her label “knowingly used the composition for commercial gain without paying for a license.”
