Cardi B has been sued by a pair of producers for copyright infringement. Joshua Fraustro and Miguel Aguilar, who also go by Kemika1956, claim Cardi stole the beat used in their song “Greasy Frybread” to create her own “Enough (Miami).”
In a complaint filed in Texas on July 3, Fraustro and Aguilar accuse Cardi B and the song’s producers — James D. Steed (DJ Swanqo) and Joshua Parker (OG Parker) — of copyright infringement of their song “Greasy Frybread” featuring Punkin’ Lusty. Fraustro and Aguilar issued their complaint in United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas.

The song was used in episode four of the series with verses from Indigenous rapper Sten Joddi. Atlantic Records, Celebrity Booking Agency and Warner Music Group are also listed as defendants.
Representatives for Cardi B and Atlantic Records did not immediately respond to Variety‘s request for comment.
