It probably is the Aries Spears thing. i know a real old Aries spears skit resu=rfaced on a recent Gunit mixtape. So they might have done the same thing here.

Dipset - I Really Mean It. Just Blaze never ceases to amaze me.

You trying to tell me that the Lakers are a top 2 Team? Do you need some rest Man? :lolsign:

I'm tired of beats like "Wait" and all that. A si mple drum pattern i can whip up in 2 seconds. Yet that producer is getting paid royally, and getting fame..off what. Same guy produced "Play" By David Banner. Dman beats are identical with 1 small exception. no one tries anymore, and it's real frustrating.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2268593 Colts Head Coach. He'll be leaving the team for a while. It's ashame. Dungy and the Colt's we're having such an amazing year. They're top Superbowl Contendors, and Christmas is only 4 Days away...Amazing how you can be so high, and in one quick flash, find yourself at the bottom, emotionally. Thoughts and Prayers go out to the family.

Sampling isn't stealingf though. take it from a producer, and i'm sure a lot of other producers i know would agree...The sounds in thos old classics are hard to immitate. it's justs t adifferent sound, and a different flavour....If we pay for the sample, I don't see how it's "Stealing",. or "NOT making my own worK"...It still is my own art, considering what you do to the sample. you don't just play the song, and add drums. you cut the sample, change things around, add stuff. it's a whole process.

well, most up and comers don'thave the money to clear a sample. 5 Bucks isn't going to cut out. If you're signed to a label, and they're distributing your album, they'll try and help you with getting samples cleared. yes you'll eventually have to pay it back, but after you earn you fit, and have enough. Like right now, if anything, i'll sample something, then sell my mixtapes on the street...Does it really seem necessary for me to clear the sample? Like I said, the profit margin is SLIM. I'm not mainly doing it for the money, but just to get my name out, and show them what i can do. Like when Kanye started. I doubt He cleard that "Can't Be Life" sample, before giving it to Jay Z. He sold it, and odds are, ROC cleared it before putting it on the album.

it's out?

Well I mean, if he changes every word, all he's really doing is immitating flow...I can see how the original artist could get upset, but in court, he'd probably take that one. I mean it's like Gwen stefani singing her verses on hollaback girl, like Biggie did(damn, name of his song slips my mind...even the lyrics i just remember "**** em all day, **** em all night, we don't love them ***s")...If he we're alive, i don't think he'd care.

The difference is, They'll be making Millions off the track, while I'll only be making the 3-5 Bucks per, I charge on the mixtape. And that's not much profit, between the cost of the CDs and Inserts.

No I thought he meant, lets say I sample a harold melvin track, for a beat, and then someone Flows over it, and I put it on the Mixtape. Now I don't clear the HM smaple, but I'm just making the CDs with my computer, and selling them outside malls...I doubt they'll care, that I used the sample.

Mixtapes are kind of an iffy area, though. for the most part, no one does.

It's not a direct smple though, it's vocal interpolation.. Meaning Will re-rapped the lyrics, not sampled from the original F5 song.

Sorry, just had to voice my opinion there.

Some people believe, some don't. We can't even prove who is right or wrong, so lets not down each others opinions. you don't believe...god for you, you believe, again good for you. I myself, believe..doesn't mean everyone in the world has to. Lerkot, you don't believe..doesn't mean everyone is a fool for believing in a higher power.

That entire biggie song was about pushing and selling crack. Thats what hhe didn't like. Jay Z Doesn't always rap about that stuff.

Is that the video with "raindrop?" that stuff was horrible. So horrible that it was hilarious.

It's Interpolation, Not a cover.

Forgot to mention Jay Z.

ok..lol, But lets not turn this into a 50 cent hatefest too. I'm getting pretty tired of that..And I don't like 50 at all.

This has nothing to do with being on the Level of an elite MC..It's about Flow. You don't gottra hve top 5 Flow, to be top 5 MC and Vica Versa. If someone thinks you got top 5 Flow, they aren't likely saying he's a Greatest of All Time.

Lerkot, you don;t have to get it. People have differing opinions. some people may like soemthing you don't. Some people may see something, in something you can't see at all. Nothing to get upset about.

I've always wanted like, a 2 disk remix album. remix new and old songs. new and old producers (From Rick Rubin to Kanye West)...That would be pretty dope.

I like Chali 2na's Flow. not going to sya best, right now, but It's nice.
