According to TMZ, Hirose Enterprise and producer Shuji Hirose have filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against Beyoncé and several music companies over the use of “Moonraker” — a song performed by John Holiday, who also performs under the name Foremost Poets. The lawsuit claims that Beyoncé’s team used the spoken word introduction from “Moonraker” in “Alien Superstar” without getting the proper license before Renaissance was released in 2022. For now, Beyoncé’s “Alien Superstar” remains available, but the legal drama surrounding its opening moments is proving to be almost as layered as the track itself.
