Drake Gets Sued: Songwriter Claims “Janice STFU” Chorus Was Stolen

Hearing his own work on a Drake record should have been a career highlight for songwriter Aviel Calev Hirschfield. Instead, he’s taking the rapper to court, alleging that the chorus of “Janice STFU” came directly from a demo he submitted to Drake’s producers months before its release. Hirschfield claims he was denied songwriting credit and compensation, despite providing recordings and other materials that he believes establish his contribution to the hit.
