Drake recompenses rapper 4-Tay $100,000 for 'Playaz Club' lyrics
Drake
New York - UPI
Drake has agreed to pay Rappin' 4-Tay $100,000 for "borrowing" his lyrics.
4-Tay raised objections earlier this year when the 27-year-old star used his lyrics without permission. Drake recites lyrics from the rapper's hit "Playaz Club" during his cameo on the YG track "Who Do You Love."
TMZ reports 4-Tay never filed a lawsuit, but he did take offense at the lack of credit. The rapper's manager tells the website Drake's record label agreed to pay the sum in recompense for "borrowing" the lyrics. 4-Tay adds that he is no longer offended.
Drake announced his fourth studio album on Tuesday. The record is his followup to 2013's Nothing Was the Same, and will be titled Views from the 6. The rapper has not started to record the album in earnest due to a number of upcoming commitments. He hosts the ESPY awards Wednesday on ESPN, and embarks on a 31-city tour with Lil' Wayne on August 8.

Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
