Overview

• Victory Boyd, a Roc Nation singer-songwriter, alleges that 'Telekinesis' copies lyrics and melodies from her unreleased 2019 track 'Like the Way It Sounds.'
• The lawsuit claims Boyd initially shared her song with Kanye West, who later introduced it to Travis Scott, leading to its use in the 2023 album 'Utopia.'
• Boyd asserts she was credited as a co-writer in the song's metadata but was unaware her work had been commercially released without her permission.
• Additional defendants include record labels, songwriters, and luxury watch brand Audemars Piguet, which allegedly used the song in an ad campaign without authorization.
• Boyd is seeking financial compensation, a full accounting of profits, and the destruction of all copies of the song derived from her original work.
