That's what happens when you sample popular songs

 

[T-K-G]

It's his work i mighta done the same if it was me

Dont sample or really learn how to abstract them

 

[Pazzy]

Who??? And why these trap rappers look the same?

 

[T.H.E. Goat]

Shouldn’t the producer who made/sold the beat get sued?

Shouldn’t the producer who made/sold the beat get sued?

If he sold the artist the beat it’s their responsibility.

The rapper now owns it

 

[Bumrush Bros.]

Who??? And why these trap rappers look the same?

nobody, just some soft gay emo rapper that got a spot once xxxtentioncord got killed. Pray for our youth

Sting Calls Juice WRLD's 'Lucid Dreams' a 'Beautiful Interpretation' of His Song 'Shape of My Heart'

The royalties from “Lucid Dreams” will "put my grandkids through college," the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee joked during a stop at the Los Angeles Grammy Museum in early October. On a more serious note, Sting tells Billboard he considers Juice WRLD’s usage of “Shape” a "beautiful interpretation that is faithful to the original song’s form."

The song’s co-writer and Sting’s guitarist Dominic Miller agrees. “I thought it was the most intelligent version of that riff that I’ve ever heard,” he says. “I was really happy with it. I love what he’s saying. He talking about something everyone can relate to, which is a breakup. It’s done in a very beautiful way. We’re really happy for his success and, of course, for us too.”

Good that song is trash


Fake thug no love you get the snub cb4 gusto

Edit: let it be known i dont support cac artists violating young cats in the game for sampling but i dont fukk with lucid dreams at all that shyt is mad whiny and beta

 

[Harry B]

How do you not clear that shyt

He released it as a mixtape song before he was signed, got signed of it and when it was taking off they probably tried and failed.

I don’t think these 18 year olds just making music in their room after they come home from their Taco Bell job, are trying to call Sting, Beyoncé or whoever and do some business or that they would answer

This is the type of behavior that caused song sampling to slow down in the mid-2000s onwards. Too much greediness from the original sampled artists and record labels regarding clearances.
