PHARRELL FACING COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT ALLEGATIONS

Hip-hop star PHARRELL WILLIAMS' legal woes are building up - he has been hit with a copyright infringement lawsuit by little-known band GEGGY TAH over a song he produced for rap duo CLIPSE.
The Neptunes beatmaker is accused of ripping off Geggy Tah's 1996 track Whoever You Are for the rappers' All I Wanna Do (Feel Like Me), which was released in 2007.
According to TMZ.com, the California-based band's co-founder Thomas Jordan filed the suit in a U.S. federal court earlier this week (begs13Jul09) and is seeking unspecified damages.
It's the second lawsuit Williams has had to deal with in the last few days - he's also been named as a defendant in legal action regarding water leaks from his Miami, Florida penthouse apartment.
