<p>Recently Beyoncé fans celebrated the one-year anniversary of her hit single, “Formation.”</p>
<p>However, if there was anyone who did not celebrate, it was the estate of the late New Orleans rapper/ YouTube personality Anthony “Messy Mya” Barre.</p>
<p>We all know that the music video for “Formation,” captures the essence of New Orleans, and Barre was well-known within the city.</p>
<p>According to <em><a href="http://www.tmz.com/2017/02/07/beyonce-sued-sample-messy-mya-formation/">TMZ</a></em>, the estate is now suing Beyoncé for allegedly using a small, but yet memorable part of his 2010 YouTube video “A 27 Piece Huh?” in the music video for her song, which is now Grammy nominated.</p>
<p>Barre’s estate claims that Beyoncé used his “I like that,” line from his video in her video without their permission, and went on to make millions from the song.</p>
<p>Barre was shot and killed back in 2010.</p>
<p>The estate goes on to claim that they tried to reach out to Beyoncé, but she allegedly did not respond to them. They are now reportedly asking for more than $20,000,000 in back royalties and other damages for using some of his final recordings.</p>
<p>TMZ has reached out to Beyoncé’s camp, but has yet to hear anything back.</p>
