Eminem may have loved the way people lied years ago, but he doesn’t love the way people steal. The 52-year-old rapper is suing Meta for $109 million due to copyright infringement.

E! News obtained court documents showing that the lawsuit was filed on May 30. Eight Mile Style, Slim Shady’s publishing company, claims that Meta violated the copyright of 243 songs within the Detroit rapper’s catalog via “unauthorized storage, reproduction and exploitation” on their platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and more.

They cited specific features such as Original Audio and Reels, which “allow and encourage its users to steal” his music to then utilize in their video content “without proper attribution or license.” The 15-time Grammy winner is seeking $109 million in damages, which is the result of allocating $150,000 in damages to each song that is being illegally used. Meta has not commented on the lawsuit.

Eminem has had a strong year, with his July 2024 album The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce) debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and selling 281,000 album-equivalent units in its first week. The album featured JID, Big Sean, Babytron, Jelly Roll, and Skylar Grey. He followed up with the deluxe in September, adding “Kyrie & Luka” with 2 Chainz and “Fuel – Shady Edition” with Westside Boogie and Grip.

Last month, Eminem shared the 25th anniversary edition of The Marshall Mathers LP, which included live versions of “The Real Slim Shady” and “The Way I Am” from the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards. Slim Shady has also been active on the feature front, joining longtime collaborators Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre and 50 Cent on “Gunz N Smoke” in December 2024.
