Four songs released by Lola Young are at the center of a legal dispute alleging that producer Carter Lang claimed unearned songwriting credits on the tracks. According to BBC<\/a>, the case filed in London was initiated by the signer-songwriter\u2019s lawyers, who said, \u201cIt is with immense disappointment, especially given recent events, that we have had no choice but to respond to recent writing credit claims from Carter Lang on four Lola Young songs by issuing legal proceedings on her behalf.\u201d<\/p>\n The recent events likely refer to Young announcing last week that she would be \u201cgoing away for a while.\u201d<\/a> The 24-year-old collapsed onstage <\/a>during a performance at All Things Go and subsequently canceled all upcoming shows and events for the \u201cforeseeable future.\u201d In a statement, she wrote, \u201cI really hope you\u2019ll give me a second chance once I\u2019ve had some time to work on myself and come back stronger.\u201d<\/p>\n More from Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n Lang worked with Young on her breakout single \u201cMessy,\u201d which appeared on her second studio album This Wasn\u2019t Meant for You Anyway released in June 2024. He is credited on \u201cMessy\u201d and \u201cGood Books\u201d as a producer, and on \u201cCrush\u201d as a songwriter. His other collaborators include Justin Bieber, SZA, Rene\u00e9 Rapp, and more artists.<\/p>\n \u201cLola has always been authentic in her songwriting process and acknowledges songwriting contributions where appropriate,\u201d Young\u2019s lawyers said. \u201cThis dispute has been ongoing for several months and we look forward to the truth being established.\u201d<\/p>\n A rep for Lang did not immediately respond to Rolling Stone\u2018s request for comment.<\/p>\n Last month, Young released her third studio album, I\u2019m Only F**king Myself.<\/a> Lang also worked on this record. He is credited as a songwriter and producer on \u201cOne Thing,\u201d \u201cPost Sex Clarity,\u201d and \u201cNot Like That Anymore.\u201d He is credited solely as a producer on \u201cWalk All Over You.\u201d Lang\u2019s credits appear alongside Young\u2019s other collaborators including Jared Solomon, or Solomonophonic, and Manuka.<\/p>\n The four songs that led to the legal action have not been specified. \u201cCarter\u2019s claims are strongly refuted and we will not allow Lola\u2019s reputation and integrity to be called into question \u2014 particularly so long after the sessions took place and agreements were put in place,\u201d Young\u2019s lawyers said.<\/p>\n Best of Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n Sign up for RollingStone’s Newsletter<\/a>.
