Rapper Kanye West is being held for plagiarism once again. That's right!

The "Bound 2" rapper is now being accused of ripping off a song by Aphex Twin for a sample featured on his 2010 hit “Blame Game.”

Richard D. James, an electronic musician, has accused West of copying his “Avril 14th” for his “Blame Game” that featured on his album "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy".

According to James, he helped the star make a sample, but was snubbed by his team, who went on to claim the credit for the finished track.

"Is it a sample? I actually don't know what it ended up being in the end, I'm so slack," he said.

He added: "I know that he tried to f*****g rip me off and claim that he'd written it, and they tried to get away with not paying. I was really helpful, and when they first sent it to me, I was like, 'Oh, I can re-do that for you, if you like', because they'd sampled it really badly and time-stretched it and there was loads of artefacts.”

"I was like, 'I'll just replay it for you at that speed if you want.' And they totally didn't even say 'hello' or 'thanks', they just replied with, 'It's not yours, it's ours, and we're not even asking you any more.'"
