Do you agree with J. Cole about music sampling?

[silverfoxx]

Personally I'll be humbled and happy someone would want to use my art and pay me a percentage of their sales. I think its a double win. Its all on how the individual sees it.

I wouldn't want my music being used for some shit i don't agree with. People make music with purpose sometimes and another artist could deflect from that purpose while minimizing the impact of your original work. In terms of people being influenced and making something similar, there shouldn't be any limitations unless the music is similar enough to be considered a clone. Regardless of what you want, you can't always control the outcome especially after you and yours are long gone. Disney is the most famous example of this but they would be the first ones to sue.

Ten Crack Commandments lawsuit...

 

[soul rattler]

disagree.

i see what hes trying to say but nobody is entitled to use another person's work just because they put it into the world.

its all about ownership.

Ownership is all about money. Cole just said he'll pay up, he simply wants to be able to use what he wants at whatever price it costs.

They could if they wanted to. They just need permission if they're putting it out for profit.

 

[DNB1]

The person who owns the art/music has the right to say no.

But the reality is that if you say no, it's just being petty and more than likely you rate yourself and your work better than it actually is.

I understand tho, I'd be upset if I made something I considered timeless and some fuck nigga sampled the shit and butchered the fuck out of it....but at the same time i'd use it as free promotion for my original work.

Kind of tricky this one....

Actually, a great deal of the world was built and is still being built on the spoils of war, slave labor and cronyism.

It depends on if it can eventually earn or influence profit potential.
