Kid Rock Wins Copyright Case Add to My Fav Bands List

Rapper Kid Rock has won his case against alleged copyright infringement over his song 'Somebody's Gotta Feel This'..

Troy Landry had brought a case against Rock allegeding the song had copied his own work from a 1994 album.

Fortunately for Rock - real name Robert Ritchie - U.S. District Judge Mary Ann Vial Lemmon did not agree.

She ruled, "The works are not so strikingly or substantially similar as to preclude independent creation. A layman would not view the works as substantially similar."
