Fearless (the song) still sounds relatively the same as it did years ago. I’m impressed

EPMD re-recorded some joints on Out of Business because their old record label wouldn’t clear earlier hits for a greatest hits compilation. This is a common thing in music.

The industry plant with hedge fund parents realer than someone that was working at the Gap and evicted while hustling to make beats.
no she can't tell them to pull the old stuff at all... digital streaming and album sales is not the same as song placements. it's not in any DSP's interest to play her new stuff she's not bigger than the labels that give them everyone else and also own parts of these companies or have in the past like Spotify. contract language for copyright laws doesn't change for individuals on the fly it's standard for the entire industry. so the rules for how long until you can re-record stuff is standard. people just don't do it often because shyt ain't the same without the sample clearances and label budget so most often people fail with the recreation and fans avoid them because they are worse. reggae artists and old soul artists used to do this for years. same songs released on different labels over and over again.
she can tell her fans to play the re-recorded shyt which is what she did already even before this process began when she couldn't get her masters. the other albums will still be available as well. people like taylor and beyonce who have hives can do this shyt. the average artist cannot direct people in the same way.

Ironically last time I checked, the new version were charting higher than the OG versions. Pretty wild. You’d expect labels to step in if this continues I’d imagine.
The quality still sounds the same as the OG versions, so you can tell that someone threw money behind the project.
"if this continues"
this isn't new

Re-recording restrictions were not standard in recording contracts until after the Everly Brothers famously left their label, Cadence, in 1960 for a million dollar deal with Warner Bros. Warner released a “Very Best of” compilation soon thereafter, but instead of just including the hits the duo had with Warner, they re-recorded some of their Cadence material, essentially copying (and therefore competing with) their previous work.
People might ask: so what if that artist or band doesn’t own the masters: why can’t they simply go back into the studio, cut new versions and release them instead? Without a re-recording restriction, an artist could do just that, repeating what the Everly Brothers did. Because labels wish to protect their investments, they view this kind of competition as dangerous, and added language to their contracts meant to prevent it.
Re-recording restrictions work by preventing the artist from creating a new version of any sound recording delivered under their agreement for anyone else for a defined period of time, often the greater of five years from delivery or three years from the end of the contract’s term. They are written to prevent any re-recording, even in situations where the original masters were never released.
