Michael Jackson’s estate has slammed Sexyy Red for her raunchy spin on the singer’s “Beat It,” after a video of the rapper using the track’s iconic beat went viral. A rep for the estate tells Billboard that they had no idea that the track, which is titled “Just Eat It, “even existed. They also noted that the explicit remix was completely “unauthorized.” Sexyy Red’s team could not be reached for a statement, according to the outlet.
Since the start of her career, Sexyy Red has faced heavy criticism for her explicit lyrics.
