Aight ima be that one nikka..

Music so saturated now adays that there aint no more new ideas. Everything will sound like something else.
:francis:
Eh... if you were to play the melody of both choruses on a piano they would sound exactly the same. Things can sound similar with the chords and shyt, but the melody is basically the same so if they decide to sue they will win

I find it interesting this wasn't discussed immediately after the release, I barely follow that kind of music, only in a club or a Lyft, or somewhere like that, would I even hear Lizzo, (not that I take issue with her or her music) but I remember asking a friend, who is about 8 years younger, what the sample was, and he didn't know, and he loves Gucci Mane.

I wonder if it speaks to a very disposable form of listening to and accessing music, that no one, called this out right away. I hadn't heard "Black Beatles" since 2016.

Right, I just mean in terms of either articles, or even conversations on here. For someone that heard the song once, like me, and knew it was a "sample", it just didn't seem like a lot of people had similar reactions.

Can't believe this song came out in 2017 :what:
