 
 U.S rapper Kanye West has denied that he plagiarised another songwriter in the lyrics to his song 'Stronger', claiming instead that the words were in fact influenced by Friedrich Nietzsche.
Vincent Rogers' lawsuit comes after he originally sued West in 2010, arguing that the hip-hop star stole directly from his song also named 'Stronger'.
But Kanye is adament are influenced by the German philosopher's quote: "That which does not kill us make stronger".
West's lawyer, Carrie Hall said:
"It would create a dangerously low threshold for establishing copyright protection over otherwise commonplace words and phrases".
