Stunna Girl Is Mad with Ciara for Not Clearing “Goodies” Sample for Her Single: “These Old Hoes Be Hating”

Stunna Girl slams Ciara for refusing to clear the “Goodies” sample on her latest single “Stand Up,” sparking a public feud over music ownership and creative control. The rapper said Ciara’s management informed her that the sample would not be utilised on her new song “Stand Up.” Stunna Girl has chastised Ciara for failing to approve the “Goodies” sample for the West Coast native’s new album, “Stand Up.”

On Thursday, Stunna used X, previously known as Twitter, to express her displeasure with the R&B musician. Stunna published the tune last week but had to pull it down a few days later because Ciara had not cleared the sample.

According to Stunna, Ciara behaves as if she produced the beat and learned that her team had called out to prevent the song from being approved, which is intriguing considering how many others have utilised the beat.

“I hate when producers use samples,” she went on to say. “These artists are acting as if they made the beat; so many people have used that beat, but the @ciara team wrote me and said she personally contacted them about me.”

But when I utilised a rhythm sampled by a white musician, they didn’t care.

A fan contacted Stunna, claiming that Ciara also had to profit from the sample. Another said Ciara can’t be serious when she’s always preaching “girl code.”

“She better goes moonwalk thru some venues & leaves me tf alone,” Stunna remarked, adding, “That girl code sh*t be fake.” These old hos are hating.”

Stunna later returned with another tweet explaining why she made the sample clearance issue public, saying, “I don’t care about what some random people on the net gotta say cuz y’all was the same people saying this lady was a man for years shoulda came to her defense then when she needed y’all the most y’all switch up like the season lol I own my music I can drop whenever I want.”

She said, “I’ll be onto the next song, not givin’ if I only posted that cuz my supporters wanted to know what happened & y’all don’t know how these people be moving behind closed doors.”

Ciara said a few years ago that she wanted to own her master’s via her record company, Beauty Marks Entertainment.

“It’s an incredible chapter,” she said at the time. “It’s pretty cool to know you’re out here running around and hustlin’ and bustlin’, and you’re not only performing songs you wrote, but you also own the masters to those songs.”

“I used to dream about that while being signed to a label,” she said. “I was thinking, ‘The day I have a chance, I want to own my masters. I want to do things differently. Because after a time, you become bored with having to go through the same process — when you believe in something and have a vision for it, but the person making the choices does not share your vision. When I was given the opportunity, I had no intention of doing anything at the time.”

Ciara also discovered she is connected to Derek Jeter during an episode of PBS’s Finding Your Roots. The episode marked the start of the show’s ninth season, which Dr. Henry Louis Gates Jr would host.

Ciara was astonished to learn that she and Jeter were connected. When Ciara was informed that Jeter was her “DNA cousin,” she remained stunned. “You are kidding me!” she said. “Derek Jeter!” That is insane.”
