Jay Z is being sued for copyright infringement on "Made in America" off his 2011 collaborative studio album with Kanye West, "Watch the Throne."

According to XXL, New York-based artist Joel McDonald claimed that the duo's track featuring Frank Ocean actually took the concept from his 2009 song of the same name and is now seeking $3 million in damage.

This is not the first time that the Brooklyn emcee is facing a lawsuit over "Watch the Throne," as soul musician Syl Johnson previously sued him and West, as well as Universal Music Group and Def Jam for sampling his track "Different Strokes" without any permission for "The Joy."

Hov and Yeezy's representative acknowledged that Johnson's track was released prior to "Watch the Throne," but still denied the allegations and fought the lawsuit. The pair reportedly cited federal copyright law in their defense, claiming that since the song was produced before 1972 -- when the law was enacted regarding covers -- they were able to use it.

Meanwhile, Mathew Knowles recently told Houston's "Roula and Ryan Show" on 104.1 that Jay Z might have faked the infamous elevator fight with his daughter Solange as well as the divorce rumors with Beyoncé for a publicity stunt.

"It's called a Jedi mind trick," he said. "The Jedi mind tricks fools you a lot of times, so things you see sometimes are [makes noise that sounds like 'poof']. Everybody's talking about it, ticket sales went up, and Solange's album sales went up 200 percent."
