pretty ironic that it was about 15 seconds of intro/skits and not a sample

it was a risky thing to do, you would think Sony would have cleared it before it dropped the record.looks like old head can win up to 150k in a re-trial, not bad for something you did 50 years ago :heh:



THAT'S WHAT THE FUKK I WAS SAYING TO MYSELF...why ISN'T SONY BEING HELD LIABLE FOR THIS SHYT!!!! :mindblown:

Sony like every major label has a Legal Department that deals strictly with the clearance and licenscing of samples.......

I mean for Christ sakes..it's a damn MARVEL PICTURES composition....why in the hell would you NOT try to clear and pay for it's usuage :why:

How the fukk they get a pass is beyond my comprehension :wtf:

The default judgment does not apply to Sony, so the claims against Sony remain to be litigated."
:dead:

that ain't right

You come after this "poor" rapper...and I do mean poor litearly..homie couldn't even afford to pay his own lawyer and is basically surviving off of reality show checks.....and although him and his producer creatively chose this sample of work....THE RECORD COMPANY SONY SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIER CLEAR INVOLVEMENT IN THIS MISHANDLING OF THIS AFFAIR...

Pathetic.......that's why I can't stand how the Judicial System and Corporate America work hand in hand to basically fukk over the common folk

:snoop:

My muthafukkin self
Why the case has taken so long can partly be explained by the difficulty of serving Ghostface with the complaint. One was delivered to his business manager, but even a private investigator couldn't locate the hip-hop star to give him an amended complaint. Eventually, the judge permitted Urbont to serve Coles via a publication notice.

:laff:

This muthafukka did everything he could to avoid them papers


He was like nope
