These industry dudes steal beats in plain site, no remaking, no reworking, and if you spend the money on going after them, likely youll eventually settle for less than you’re owed.

There was a similar kind of disagreement with who produced the Eric B. & Rakim records in the 80s (which had very influential production on them)... they're credited as produced by Eric B. & Rakim, but in a lot of cases Rakim and Eric took the records they wanted to use to Marley Marl and Marley did a lot of the sampling/programming. So it becomes a case of whether the producer is the person who had the idea of what to put together, or the person who physically put the elements together.

There were rumours back in the day that Timbaland would hire ghost producers and make them work in a studio and just take the best samples for himself. He also claimed that he invented dubstep lol. Let’s not forget that infamous case where he quite literally stole a sample and claimed he made it himself, without giving credit.

I ve made recently a beattape, and something that I've found quite unique, the question is that a fellow producer came across me, who was with me one of these days while I worked on the tape telling " owh I've used one of the samples you got there, I hope u don't mind, check my beat, see here" ofter I've checked we both laught at the differences, with two completely different approaches. Long story short, no problem in using, in fact, the same sample, the thing is how you do it maintaining your identity on it. I've made a Celtic druid tape and put that there, it's great, and the dude made a freestyle like beat that's dope as f***, he didn't quite stole, he made it to be way different than mine, even so I didn't feel malice, it was a good studio day that day 😁

I love the quote. I recently had a situation where I thought a producer stole from me on a Tony Yayo song. I reached out to the producer and Tony Yayo, neither got back to me (Surprise!) but in the end, I chalked it up to we both took an easy route in chopping same sample. maybe that's naïve of me. but i'd rather chalk it up than stay enraged. that being said it also taught me that maybe my stuff was a little better than i thought, but I still need to work on my drums and get my legal stuff together before continuing to put music on Soundcloud. Anyways, I loved the video...I think Puff definitely stole. Only because he's done so much shady stuff. And thanks for the quote. I'm going to print it out and give you a sub credit. LOL

In Norway there’s been two crazy low down dirty producers. I know a group that had to pull everything they released for two-three years cos a producer/beat maker took credit for ALL the beats on their albums, when he just simply stole everything from other producers. He recorded and totally jacked beats from other producers. It all came to light when one of the producers who actually made the beat threatened to sue them. And they started testing their “producer” by asking him to changed some minor things to the beat, and they asked to get stems and he couldn’t provide. And we have another dude doing the exact same thing to day. I actually think it’s the same guy😂 and he’s also working with known American rappers as well.

I watched a interview with the producer Soulshock from Souldshock & Karlin who did Do For Love. I think Soulshock mostly did drums and samples and Karlin played keys. He talked about when he did that song how he was a huge fan of Dilla and Tribe. I think he def sampled the drums and that guitar chop (or recreated it) but to me its more like uncredited sampling than just jacking a beat. He did mention though how Karlin came up with the bassline on the keyboard. They also did Me Against The World. It was a cool interview.

It’s harder when don’t understand the industry. I started out as a Chicago house dj/ producer as a kid in the 90s. I was really into making hip hop soul beats, like RZA and OutKast’s producer. I made the tracks on my MPC 60 that I bought from cutting hair at school. I was a rapper at the time but my flow was different. So I rapped on my own tracks that literally sounds similar to Otis, international players anthem and many modern songs. Well before they were produced. I laugh now as I get that many people can have similar ideas and experiences. back then I wanted to be a part of this hip hop group called Ill State, my friends brother was their engineer for them. When my backpack was stolen a few of my copy tracks and piece book were stolen too. Only later to hear similar songs. I don’t make music anymore but I still have the drives and listen to them now and then.

I just got stolen from recently sending a demo to a "friend" who's on the top 100 DJ;s in the world list. A few months later the song comes out on a major label with the same exact name and structure with just a few sounds changed. I dont think there's any way I can get credit for this since I sent it to them as a demo but be careful music industry is shady as F*ck

@@tenslider6722 I do have both. The hardest part is probably the legal fees which could easily go into the thousands. So im a little handcuffed cause I cant afford that but do have all the proof.

Definitely sue my man. Reach out to a lawyer and get what’s owed to you. If you do everything right they will take down your stolen work and send them a cease and desist order

Do for love karlin said they wanted it to sound like a tribe called quest "relax yourself", now for the DJ Dillah part it's my first time hearing it, but with your explanations it sounds like a mix of both ATCQ & Dillah which were collaboraters
