I remembered this. Both songs were samples from the Tupac song. But I remember something about Jay not even being aware that Toni was using the sample, because it wasn't like her version was popular. I remember something about if he would've known he would've dueted with her. So maybe it was fate because he ended up dueting with Beyonce & look at them now.
Plus why is she coming for Bey? She just sung the hook. Why not come for Jay or Kanye? Cuz Bey isn't even credited as a writer. Why all of a sudden is Toni concerned about her money? That college fund been gone girl

But this is how the music industry works and Def Jam has been the worst. Many of Rihanna's hits were "stolen" from other artists
For one, it's a sample. Not sure how it was "stealing her song". But poor that.
The lyrics and vocals are basically the same. Even songs with the same sample don't have the exact same backing track. And being released at the same time with the Def Jam connection makes it even more obvious.
