Justin Timberlake's former band *NSYNC, along with their label Jive Records, are being accused of ripping off a song by an, until now, unknown singer-songwriter - right down to the song title.
In a lawsuit filed yesterday in a Las Vegas Federal Court, a musician named Troy Alexander (or 'Royal T') alleges that he played Jive Records a demo tape including the song ‘Up Against the Wall’ back in 1990.
According to the lawsuit, Jive signed *NSYNC a few years later, who then released a song in 2001 "substantially similar" to Alexander's work. The song featured on the hit album 'Celebrity' and 'kept' the same title.
A rep for Jive told TMZ that they were not aware of the claim and had not been served with any papers.
