Alicia Keys is reportedly upset that Lupe Fiasco used one of her unreleased songs without her consent.
The R&B superstar, who collaborated with the rapper on a song, entitled 'Letter To The Beat', previously recorded a song with Chad from the Neptunes for her 2007 album As I Am.
According to All Hip Hop, the track was never finished and was meant to be used at a later time but Chad gave the vocals and the beat to Fiasco without Keys's consent.
Reports claim that Fiasco's use of the original Keys song has infuriated the singer.
Keys's longtime music engineer Ann Mincieli revealed her disappointment with Fiasco's decision to use the song, on Twitter.
Mincieli wrote: "When you get leaked that hard illegally its REVENGE. In All my years in this Industry, I never saw someone be so DISRESPECTFUL.... @lupefiasco. I just want to teach people ONE LESSON.... DONT LEAK SOMEONE's HARD WORK (sic)."
