Kandi Burruss suing Kim Zolciak over “Tardy for the Party?” The Kandi Burruss Kim Zolciak beef is far from over. Kandi and Kim explained the beef that they had with each other before, the beef being centered around the baby name Kash that Kandi claims Kim jacked from her, Kim claiming otherwise. And even with Kim no longer appearing in the remaining episodes of the show this season after making an early departure, that didn’t mean that things were all well and good between her and Kandi as the baby name situation was brought up again, Kandi still making it known that she still feels some type of way about Kim supposedly stealing her baby name. Turns out though that there is another form of “Kash” that Kandi is coming after Kim for as she is suing Kim Zolciak over her hit single “Tardy for the Party,” Kandi filing the suit over Kim not properly compensating her for the work she did on the song.
The lawsuit was filed on Tuesday in the US District Court of the Northern District of Georgia. Both Kandi and co-writer Rodney Richards are seeking “damages for copyright infringement due to Defendants’ unauthorized and unlawful licensing, distribution and sale of Plaintiffs’ creative works, namely a sound recording embodying a performance of a musical composition entitled “Tardy for the Party.”
Even though “Tardy for the Party” dropped awhile ago, Kandi Burruss is still looking for what she thinks is her rightful cut from Kim and has taken legal action against her. However, other reports are claiming Kandi didn’t secure an agreement over royalties, and the rights to the song were given to Bravo.
Kim Zolciak on the other hand, thinks Kandi is doing this all for one thing and one thing only: Publicity. And Kim credits her daughter Brielle as the original songwriter, not Kandi:
Shut up Kim…
I’m glad someone said it.
Knew it would come down to this…
It’s about time.
I second that.
Why is Kim playing dumb like she doesn’t know she owes Kandi money? Lol.
Right.
No contract means Kandi might not have a case. That was a dumb move.
Someone is gonna be tardy for their rent in a second Kim.
That song was a waste of studio time.
What’s sad is that Kim didn’t pay Kandi what was rightfully to begin with…….
And she waited this long why?
i dont think kandi thought the song would blow up like it did…..kim is a skank…….even tho, like kandi is rich; why does she want more money…..selfish, and to make it worse she is cheap!!!!!! and kandi helping kim played a major role in kandi’s breakout storyline for rhoa wtf!!!!!!!!
