iHipHop AdminBillboard reports that daughter of Jazz artist Joe Farrell has filed suit against Ye, Com, Red and Meth over an allegedly uncleared sample.
The lawsuit said all the rappers used portions of Farrell’s 1974 musical composition "Upon This Rock" in three separate songs — West in "Gone," Common in "Chi-City" and Method Man and Redman in their song "Run 4 Cover."
Firrantello is seeking punitive damages of at least $1 million and asked that no further copies of the songs be made, sold or performed, according to the lawsuit.
Thats fucked up. She must be broke or sumthin trying to get a few dollarz off them niggaz.
Irregardless of guilt or Innocence rich or POOR, CLEAR ALL SAMPLES!!!!

Dumb ass nigga’z dats what da non-creative asses gett.
Real Talk, business is business, thats the risk taken with samples, the only problem i have with the request is not performing the song anymore, hell they bringing attention to her dad, may help his old catalog, but greed is always shortsighted!
them nigaas knew better if somebody sampled they shit that they created from scratch they would mad ass hell rappers always talkin that shit bout someone biting their style and them the mf who cant create real music LEARN TO PLAY AN INSTRUMENT BITCHES N PERFECT YOUR STYLE
regardless to wut all ya niggas is sayin, these niggas r creative. they jus took a sample. they didnt use the same exact beat or lyrics, they jus took a lil sample n used it in their own way 2 make it their own. thats been creative. takin sumthin already used, changin it, n makin it ur own. dumb ass niggas. look like ya da haters. wen these r 4 of the most creative rappers out there. dick heads
CLEAR ALL SAMPLES!!!!
thats her(late fathers) shit. what would you do if i came in your house snatched your coco puffs and called it my own. them niggas makin millions off other niggas shit. dont get me wrong the only time i use a keyboard is to add a bassline or stings to my shit, but that dosent mean i dont respect all the artist i pull a sample from. how can someone defend Kanye over some shit like this that nigga cry about EVERYTHING
1 all you niggas who learned how to play keys in the church stop acting like you the reallest gangstas making tracs(side note GANGSTAS DONT MAKE BEATS)learn your history about hip hop. or you can continue making that Solder Boy
bullshit i dont give a fuck
2 all you sampling ass niggas stop going on like you the shit. learn somthing about the artist you about to sample from, show some respect, and if you get to that level pay what you owe. checkmate
gonna agree wit swazie
and fuck a sample I aint use a sample yet and Ive been making beats for almost 4 years be creative and bring something new and fresh to the game
Im tired of giving these niggas credit for making something hot and then find out the nigga aint do nothing but add a drum thats not creative at all. these niggas need to step their game everything on kanyes cd was sampled except for flashing lights and that was the best song on graduation so these niggas cant be untalented just paying for hits which is very commercial.
Dolla Bill5 & MamaSaid…. I bet you cheesy lil niggas think that 3 note keyboard beats are dope. I bet ya’ll think Lil John’s strip club tinkerbell beats are hiphop. Well hey lil niggas…sampling IS hiphop. And it takes more talent to chop a dope sample and do it right than it takes to use you corny ass 808 drum kits and hit two notes on a synthesizer. That ish ya’ll think is dope is not hiphop and is run of the mill!
oh yeah and barry bonds I think that track was cool to.
actually I use a triton le and the last lil jon beat I liked was lovers and friends. I dont have a problem with sample but when your hole cd is sample your forcing it.
DollaBill5 aint hard to figure out. Every nigga who takes a picture of himself with his shirt off (in front of a mirror) is a cheesy ass follower who digs whatever is popular. This nigga likes that down south ish because it gets the ladies moving….in other words, he likes music that females like. Long live samples…..death to these whack ass down south nursery rhyme, twinkle twinkle little star ass out beats
I’m sorry but….what in the hell us up with CrackSpace? All I see it trendy ass niggas taking pics of their willies and mentally confused teenaged girls viewing and commenting on bizzare porno vids and pictures of teenage poser’s penises….what the hell is the new generation’s problem? Ya’ll dont know what hiphop even is and all you can think about is posing in front of a mirror and taking pics of your genitels. Is this the hope for black America’s future? Coon ass rappers gritting their grills for white onlookers and mindless lil kids shooting pics of their privates? I give America 20 years tops….this place is about to go under. Just as Rome and Babylon fell, if we keep this ish up there will be more natural disasters and war coming to our shores.
AND…the BS ya’ll call hiphop sounds like some ignant ass slave nigga talking like Stepin Getchit (google him if you dont know) “I sho am good”..over some tinkerbell, 3 note synthesizer ish with the same old 808 drum kit that every corny ass geechie ass southern producer uses. It sucks that hiphop gets no love from so called “hiphoppers” anymore. It also sucks that rap music has become the damn armpit of the music industry and that the line between porn and hiphop is so muddled now that young niggas coming up think that hiphop is about sounding more mindless and ignorant that the other guy. Go back and study the early artists (no, pac and biggie are not the original cats)…I mean go back and study Public Enemy, KRS One (Boggie Down Productions), Slick Rick, Melly Mel and tell me how much talk of guns and who they screwed you hear in their music! You may hear one reference on a whole album (or none at all). Now days, these whack ass clowns in black face RELY on
Titos ifeel a lot of what you sayin but talkin bout the south like you is you gonna have to calm down. I dont know where you from homie but i read you say something bout coon ass rappers gettin grills and how u call out niggas for bein followers yet you got a grill as your avatar. Stop hatin on the south for takein your bitches and showin you how to shine(wherever you from). Down here we all bout enjoyin life and respect. The music you here is the result of disrespect. No homo but we got good dicks down here thats why the northern bitches luv us. If you got a problem you herein then become a label owner and change the game until then shut the fuck up and kut the radio up WE GETTIN MONEY DOWN HERE WHAT IT DO PIMPIN
Irregardless??? Cmahdi TAKE YO ASS BACK TO SCHOOL dumbass!
Neversleep…let me tell you what homie: The whole concept of the “coon charicature” was created by whites in the old days to portray blacks as ignorant, sex crazed, lacking self control and intelligence and talking like a field hand slave….these charicatures were brought to the big screen by people like Stepin Fetchit. Well, today we have the NEW coon charicature being propogated by mass media in the form of Lil John, the Ying Yang Twins and every other no talent strip club/ringtone phenom out there. And all of that “stop hatin'” shit is so played out! I could punch Mase in the face for popularizing that ish back in the 90s. Nowadays, if you dont agree with the BS masses and bow to commerical rap you’re a “hater”. Please come up with some intelligent shit to say and stop being a predicatble trendy nigga. BTW, the grills avatar is called SARCASM lil nigga
jackin beats is part of hiphop man some of the best jack beats dre jacked the funk out of george clintin premo jacked mad jazz artis we nodded our heads to all that shit pay them old folks fo jackin they shit u might hav to pay the gran kids that money u no she was at the club when she came up wit the scam to sue some rappers
All hale Titos the all wise and powerful new black leader. Home boi the first step in becomeing a stronger black nation is to stop segregating ourselves in such a manner that you so ignorantly put it. You worst than Oprah. Money is the first thing needed in order to run a campaign so if these so called “coon charicatures” have found a way to better their situations than more power to them. Black people as a whole always worry about how they are viewed and strive for acceptance that they easily sell out black people feeling like they are the mind set that all blacks should have. Obviously they fail to fit within the coon phrase because their making more money then your intelligent ass. If you wanna be black then be black but stop puttin down another black because he dont say what you wanna say. Say it for your damn self and stop judgin from the BIG NIGGA your momma wish she had
