The Roc Nation founder, White, said his laptop was stolen in 2009 and it had all the notes of his work, reported Ace Showbiz.
"My personal computer was compromised, resulting in my personal work to be used in Jay-Z's book Decoded which was released in 2010.
"The book (Decoded) contains various
expressions/colors/phrases, which correlates to my work. After contacting or attempting to contact the co-author, I got no reply," White said.
White filed the paperwork in United States District Court on June 13.
'Decoded' is a song book of the 42-year-old hip-hop star's self-penned verses that he has recorded during his career.
