.
On Wednesday Beyonce Being Sued For 'Drunk In Love' Sample was a top story. Here is the recap: (Radio.com) Maybe Beyonce and Jay Z were too busy drinking watermelon to ask for permission to use a sample on their song "Drunk In Love." The Hungarian singer, Monika Miczura Juhasz, is suing the couple, claiming they used her voice without permission on the Beyonce track.

According to Billboard, Juhasz, known as Mitsou, claims Beyonce's track samples a song she recorded with her folk band Ando Drom in 1995 called "Bajba, Bajba Pelem" off the album, Kaj Phirel o Del?

That album was later released in the United States in 1997 as Gypsy Life on the Road. In the Manhattan civil case, Mitsou is reportedly seeking unspecified damages, but is also demanding an end to distribution of the song.

Listen to "Bajba, Bajba Pelem" and "Drunk In Love" - here.
