Odd Future crooner Frank Ocean faces a court battle if he ever performs his single 'American Wedding,' after an uncleared sample was challenged by the original performers.
The Nostalgia, Ultra track samples the Eagles' classic Hotel California, and, a year after the album's internet release, it seems songwriter Don Henley has caught wind of the loop, which was not cleared.
Ocean revealed the news on his Tumblraccount, saying: "Don Henley is apparently intimidated by my rendition of Hotel California..."
"He threatened to sue if I perform it again. I think that’s f**kin awesome."
The 24-year-old is currently working on his as yet untitled Def Jam debut, as well as upcoming Odd Future group album, The Odd Future Tape, Volume 2.
