John Cena Called Out By Rapper For Allegedly Stealing Lyrics

WWE

A Columbus, Ohio rapper named Copywrite has alleged that John Cena stole lyrics from him in a new statement through his record label.

In a press release through Roundhouse Music, Copywrite announces the diss track, with the release reading:

On his new album The High Exhaulted II, buzzing Columbus rapper Copywrite has shared news of an intriguing situation that occurred with WWE wrestler John Cena. On track 3, titled “Spoiler Alert / Have U Cena?”, he reveals that Cena stole his lyrics for his own music and WWE performances in a barrage of bars that dissect the fiasco with the wrestler. As Copy says, he first caught Cena stealing lyrics for his WWE act as rapper on YouTube- “I got the news from a fan out the blue, at first I think was the truth/ til he sent the YouTube link as the proof/ now I’m tryna think what to do”. Embarrassingly for Cena, it was in fact glaringly obvious to the veteran rapper that his lyrics had been ripped off without permission, as Copy rhymes “bit it, it was so apparent”. After a beat switch, the second half of the track ups the ante even further and finds him coming at Cena with sharply-crafted, fierce bars. Lines like “lies, what your rap career is based on” and “right now, John loves to play emcee” expose Cena’s biting vehemently, driving home the point that he used many lifted lyrics to formulate his rap act for WWE.

“Spoiler Alert / Have U Cena?” is a potent diss track that attacks Cena from all angles, taking no prisoners in the process. In hip-hop history, biting lyrics and styles has always been a cardinal sin, and it appears Cena has committed these sins in regards to stealing shamelessly. “Spoiler Alert / Have U Cena?” offers interesting surprises at every turn, as Copy sharply dissects the situation and throws lyrical darts at Cena with each bar.”

Although this may sound incredibly random, according to others, they learned about the rapper from Cena himself.

Chris Hero (formerly known as Kassius Ohno) shared on a podcast in 2014, (“Get Up This This”) that he had learned about Copywrite from a conversation with Cena, seconded by host Jensen Karp with Cena listing the underground rapper as one of his top 4 rappers.

In case you were wondering, allegedly Cena listed his other three favorites as Eminem, Jay-Z and Jadakiss.

So far, no response from the Doctor of Thuganomics turned Hollywood star to the diss track.
