just I want a comment on this answer

Taylor Swift has made a ton of hits over the years, and everyone seems to love her right? Everyone but Sean Haul and Nathan Butler, as they attempted to sue her for copyright infringement. Copyright is the legal right of someone's work, and can only be reproduced by them and whoever they say. Copyright ls protected for life as well as another 70 years after that. The two songwriters wrote a hit song in 2001, "Playas Gon' Play", and believed Taylor Swift's "Shake it Off" was worthy of copyright infringement. The judge said that the words "playas gonna play, play play, and "haters gonna hate, hate, hate can not be copyrighted, and the judge dismissed it. The judge also said it was a money grab. The judge also gave the players a chance to change the complaint, but he doubts it will happen.
