Tyler Perry won “Good Deeds” lawsuit

Tyler Perry won “Good Deeds” lawsuit

     In August of 2013, Tyler Perry won his infringement lawsuit for “Good Deeds.”  Let me just say that, “I loved him in this movie, especial the scene with him having sex with the girlfriend.” Laugh Out Loud!
     Can you believe it; someone tried to sue him for this movie? When you have as much money as Mr. Perry everyone is coming at you for something or another and it’s quite sad that it’s for something that he created.  There are so many movie ideas out there that they’re all going to start showing the same thing eventually. Haven't you noticed that the same movies are being cast over and over again but with new faces to make them look fresh; just look at the “Superman” movies or “Spiderman?” Writers are running out of ideas so they go back to what worked in the first place and try to decide how they can make it new or fresh by attaching a two to it; like Speed 2, or Hangover 2.
     Quite frankly Mr. Perry is such an easy target for these sorts of legal claims but fortunate for him he actually has the money to fight them. You have to admit that it must be draining for him to have to take time out for these sorts of things because he has to show up in court to defend himself over and over again.  The bad side is that the person suing him actually get's free advertisement.
     The sad thing is that when you’re sued so many times with the same claim people start talking. You know how we are? We start spreading rumors and all; not thinking about if they’re true or not. Mr. Perry will really have to think about this because he doesn’t want to tarnish his perfect image. People don’t really support “Tyler Perry” the Company but they support Tyler Perry the man.  Are you feeling me? Image is such an important part of his character as a man in this industry.  He really needs to put some sort of disclaimer on his webpage to say that he doesn’t accept other peoples (writers) work; no unsolicited material.  I believe that this will make it clear to people that if you send your work to him it will go in the trash and actually put it in the trash.
    Unfortunately, for Mr. Perry he has another lawsuit to go through.  Yes, someone else is claiming that he stole their idea.  People you cannot copyright an idea; so claiming that he stole your idea for a movie or a book most likely will be dismissed by the judge.  Always remember that the burden of proof lies with the Plaintiff; so they have to prove their case.  It’s not as simple as it sounds because it’s a process and when you’re dealing with the courts it’s a long process.

     Hopefully Mr. Perry doesn’t have to face any more of these frivolous lawsuits but when you have money and fame it’s usually attached to a negative side; lawsuits are one of them. I really hope he wins this new lawsuit because it must be so much to handle these crazy things and run a million dollar company.  Well, here’s to a better year Mr. Perry and to all of you, “much love from your girl,” Lady PJ.

Exclusive Rights to a beat/track

What does "exclusive rights" mean?


  • This gives the music artist sole ownership of the beat, and unlimited use of it as well. The producer cannot sell this beat/track to anybody else and must take it down from any selling sites. Make sure that all copyrights to the beat are properly transfered to you and all usage restrictions are lifted. This allows you to use the beat in any way you see fit. You should be given a signed "transfer of ownership" agreement from the producer or beatmaker.
