Ne-Yo May beTaking Beyonce to Court

Ne-Yo May beTaking Beyonce to Court
I heard this from lalate.com and I was shocked to learn that one of Beyonce's most played songs, Irreplaceable, was actually written by Ne-Yo, and he is furious over non paid royalties.

Here are the details from mediatakeout.com:
A person familiar with the details spoke EXCLUSIVELY with MediaTakeOut.com on the condition of anonymity. That person explained, "[Ne Yo] was never paid for writing the song Irreplaceable. There was just an understanding that he'd help out on [Beyonce's album] and when it was his time to make his album, Beyonce would return the favor."

But the insider tells MediaTakeOut.com that Beyonce is now refusing to record a duet on Ne Yo's upcoming album. The insider explains, "I don't know what's going on, but it doesn't look like Beyonce's going to be working on the album ... Ne-Yo could have sold that song for hundreds of thousands of dollars ... I know that he's consulted a lawyer over what to do about things."

And our source supports Ne Yo's decision to take possible legal action. The insider added, "I'm not sure whether [Ne Yo] will actually go through with a lawsuit. But I know he's furious about it ... If she doesn't work on his album, I hope he does sue."
