<h3 style="text-align: center;">Here&#8217;s What Prompted Boosie&#8217;s Feud With Rod Wave</h3>
<p>On November 19, Boosie took to Instagram Live. During his stream, a fan reportedly brought up Rod Wave&#8217;s song, &#8216;Long Journey,&#8217; per <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhUD-j1JWGo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">HipHopDX</a>. The outlet reports that the Wave&#8217;s single incorporates a hook from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qM77o8x6GnI" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Boosie&#8217;s song of the same title</a>.</p>
<p>The 41-year-old responded by explaining that he plans to take legal action against Rod Wave and other artists who have sampled his music without giving him the proper credit or payout.</p>
<blockquote><p>“Rod Wave ain’t the only one,&#8221; Boosie told fans. &#8220;S**t, y&#8217;all better do y’all research&#8230; I done got paperwork on the way — a lot of people bruh, it ain’t just Rod Wave. And it&#8217;s crazy &#8217;cause all of them named it the same song.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Additionally, the rapper explained that he &#8220;isn&#8217;t mad&#8221; at the artists and actually loves it when they sample his music. However, the &#8216;Wipe Me Down&#8217; rapper explained that he needs to be compensated.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I love when they do that s**t. They be giving me my flowers&#8230; It’s just, you gotta compensate me too. It’s a business — just like you do everybody else,&#8221; Boosie explained. &#8220;They supposed to reach out and be like, &#8216;Man, we need to give you your writer&#8217;s share, your publishing on this record we finna put out'&#8221;</p></blockquote>
