Title: 'Playas Gon' Play' Songwriters Sue Taylor Swift Over 'Shake It Off'

The songwriters who wrote 3LW?s 2001 hit ?Playas Gon? Play? are claiming that Taylor Swift ripped them off. TMZ reports that Sean Hall and Nathan Butler -- who have also worked with the Backstreet Boys, Justin Bieber, Maroon 5 -- and more are suing Taylor for 20 percent of her 2014 hit ?Shake It Off.?

Admittedly, ?Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play/ And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate? is pretty close to ?The playas gon? play/ Them haters gonna hate,? although a representative for Taylor disagrees. ?This is a ridiculous claim and nothing more than a money grab,? says her rep. ?The law is simple and clear. They do not have a case.?

Hopefully she does the right thing and gives them a cut.
But then again she probably feels above this mess.

Whenever I heard that part in Taylor's song, I honestly did think of 3LW every time. I'm not vested in either of these acts so yeah it's a thing.

Playas gon play and haters gon hate is a phrase that didnt start with 3LW though (correct me if I'm wrong). So they really dont have a case. But hopefully they'll win every cent they are suing for.

!!!!
I immediately thought of the 3Lw tune, I actually bought 1989' the day it dropped!  ^_^ :dead: , and it was one of the first things I noticed.

Also Tay' gets into the...
Breakers gonna Break//
And the Fakers gonna fake!/:

THE chorus set-up is really the exact same concept....They should have been had COIN, imo.
