Tyler Perry & Lawsuit Over Madea’s Choice of Words

It has happened and if Tyler Perry remains as successful as he is, will probably happen again.  There is a lawsuit stemming an accusation that Tyler Perry in Madea Goes To Jail took without permission a whole line from the song When I Think of the Goodness of Jesus by the late Bertha James.  The representative of Bertha James is suing, according to TMZ, as they believe that the entire chorus was used without permissions granted while wanting to be paid in full for copyright infringement.

Ouch.  Well, the good thing is that things should in fact work out no matter what the hang up as Tyler Perry seems reasonable…and he is definitely rich…therefore copyright compensation if infringed should be a piece of cake.

There are so many times where Tyler has given to both the rich, poor and discriminated against, and it is this time that Tyler Perry has given back to one of the oldest organizations still alive today for African American rights and justice - the NAACP.  Tyler Perry made it a point to donate one million dollars to the organization, and with that amount of a donation, it is safe to say that TP believes that they deserve every bit of it.  As a matter of fact, this is the most that the NAACP has ever gotten from any individual to date!  Awesome job, TP.  Don’t let anyone tell you that your money goes for nothing.  God knows that what you have been blessed with, you really do try to bless others.
