According to reports, the Atlanta native, born DeAndre Cortez Way, his musical associates Justin “JBar” Rucker, Abrahim “Arab” Mustafa, and his S.O.D. Money Gang Entertainment, Inc. are all accused of stealing designer Clement Brown Jr.’s slogan.
The suit, which was filed Friday (July 30) in a Michigan Eastern District Court, alleges that Soulja Boy and his crew re-worded the slogan displayed on Brown Jr.’s Laundry Money Clothing t-shirts, and are passing them off as their own. The slogan, which was copyrighted in 2008, reads “grind…hustle hard…double up…flip…stack…get your weight up…save…cop…invest…re-cop…reinvest….buy property…network…build credit…stay determined…”
