Contacted by Ticket Magazine, Fabrice Rouzier declined to comment. “I’m sorry, but I won’t be able to comment,” he responded. However, the editorial team independently verified the authenticity of the complaint filed by Mr. Rouzier in New York via the Justia Dockets & Filings website, an online database providing free access to U.S. federal court records (https://dockets.justia.com/docket/new-york/nyedce/1:2025cv02226/530403).

The lawsuit, filed on April 22, 2025, with the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, accuses the two artists of exploiting audio and visual elements from his song “Je Vais.” Through this legal action, Rouzier aims to defend not only his work but also the integrity of Haiti’s musical heritage.
