BeyoncĂ© Knowles’ destiny these days looks to be in the courtroom. A Minneapolis musician has filed a copyright-infringement lawsuit, accusing the “Naughty Girl” diva of swiping a song, MTV reports. The suit, filed in Houston Tuesday by singer-songwriter Jennifer Armour, claims the Destiny’s Child frontbabe ripped off lyrics and hooks from Armour’s “Got a Little Bit of Love For You,” for “Baby Boy,” which featured dancehall reggae star Sean Paul and topped Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in the summer of 2003. Armour says her track was written months before the release of Knowles’ solo album debut, Dangerously In Love, which contained “Baby Boy.” The complaint alleges Knowles, 23, stumbled upon the tune after Armour shopped it around the music biz. A hearing in the case is scheduled for Oct. 28.
