These new brehs do a quick Google search and think they know it all.

Any music listener knows about covers. All the greats did it. Are they gonna say they Aretha Franklin is Jacques of the 60s and 70s because she sang Say a Little Prayer after Dionne Warwick? It are they gonna say The Beatles are because they sung Twist and Shout or Please Mr Postman?
How can they even listen to rap? It's all samples flipped. But that's ok though? These goofies just want to argue.

Mods ban this mother fukker for this blasphemous thread. Luther is one of the few artists who routinely made covers as good or better than the original. And was loved for it.

:jbhmm: Is mother fukker two words, or a compound word like motherfukker?

A young Michael Jackson did covers. Blame It on the Boogie is a cover along with Rockin’ Robin.
