25 Sep
Summary
- Promoter claims Blueface's unauthorized stream cost millions.
- Rapper allegedly broadcast Chrisean Rock's boxing match for free.
- Legal action seeks unspecified damages for lost sales and profits.
Rapper Blueface has been sued for copyright infringement by boxing promoter Skyy Myles and streaming provider BLK Prime Boxing. The lawsuit alleges that Blueface illegally livestreamed Chrisean Rock's recent boxing debut, which was available for purchase at $29.99 on BLK Prime's pay-per-view service.
According to the federal complaint, Blueface and Wack 100 broadcast the match for over an hour on Blueface's verified Kick channel. Tens of thousands of viewers reportedly tuned into this unauthorized stream. The plaintiffs contend that Blueface admitted to the broadcast, citing a financial dispute with Chrisean Rock.
Furthermore, it is claimed that Blueface explicitly encouraged viewers not to buy the pay-per-view and to watch his free stream instead. Chrisean Rock's attorney called the actions a "blatant and brazen disregard for copyright." The plaintiffs are seeking unspecified damages for lost sales and profits, as well as reimbursement for legal expenses.
