Producer Tyrone Fyffe, known as Sugarless, has filed a lawsuit against Mike Tyson for using the song “Murdergram” in an Instagram video promoting his fight against Jake Paul in November 2024. Fyffe co-wrote and produced the track for Jay-Z, DMX, and Ja Rule in 1998. The lawsuit alleges that Tyson’s use of the song misled viewers into thinking Fyffe endorsed the fight. Fyffe is seeking a portion of Tyson’s profits from the bout and royalties for the song’s use. Another lawsuit related to Tyson’s fight involves a Florida resident suing Netflix for streaming issues during the event.
