you know...i hate when ppl say that. what do you think edm is about? it's nothing but a bunch of DJ's playing other people's songs and "fixing" other people's songs to fit their style and then releasing it. |
yea but she didnt just sample it...she took the whole song and sang over it. plus biggies version was much nicer |

| i think it's a little different when someone uses a song from biggie or tupac...they both were legends and died, so i dunno, i always thought of it as like showing respect by using the stuff they so brilliantly put out when they were alive. |

what doies that have anything to do with R&B
In R&B its abt originality. when u jack someones beats or u jack someones hooks or lines its called biting and is looked down upon in the world of r&B and hip hop. so thefact she released this bite as a the first hit off her album shows she and murder inc. are talentless losers |
btw this isnt the first time that label has bitten things from different artists. theyre actually well renowned for it. i mean when ur star artist is ja-Rule, the man known for biting the styles of DMX, tupac and a list oof other rappers what would u expect |

i think thats bull. nobody does it. only jay-z rips a line hre and there and thats to big up biggie, who he was close firends with . no other artist ever redoes there songs. producers may take old songs and make remixes to them yes. but never rip em off |

Off topic - Thank god I didn't buy tickets to the Depeche Angel tour. Sources say they did only 3 songs and left the stage, along with alot of stumbling over lyrics because they were forgotten. Have you went yet? |

well i guess i like the words for that ashanti song and i also liked that biggie song, so it's only natural i liked it.
i love hip hop songs that feat. a diva.
a perfect example is the remix of mariah carey's "Shake you off" with Jay Z. and Young Jeezy. i've been playing that a lot in my car too.
Jay Z. is a mothafcukin pimp, i'm sorry. there is no other like him. |

wouldnt happen to be the kansas show would it? because the singer got sick and they had to cancel the show halfway through.
I went here in Toronto and had a blast. the pic in my sig is actually from it. it was probably the best concert ive been to so far. |
