Marvin Gaye Family Wins First Legal Battle Against Robin Thicke, Pharrell, & T.I.

[ShaDynasty]

A lot of music production dummies on here I see. If you've ever attempted to create a beat, youd know they ripped off Marvin Gaye. It doesn't have to be sample.

Dumb koONS defending crooked cacs, a snitch and gay uncle tom

Wheres the part where they're stealing the music though? Using the same instruments and a similar production style is not stealing, simple as that.

Although I think it is crazy that the Gaye family is winning this shyt since it doesn't actually contain a sample, I am still happy they are because Marvin is the GOAT and these three pieces of shyt are some real fukking lames for biting and then counter suing.

be fans of a genre where biting and sampling others is the norm brehs

fukk these three stooges

Great news

Pharrell: But it's not the same, it's in a different Key.



I think that's up there with Vanilla Ice saying:

"No Mines goes ding, ding, di di ding. There's goes Da, Da Da dadda Da".

LOL.

I know it's hypocritical but I don't give a fukk, fukk em

This is BS because they should sue MJ's estate for "Don't Stop 'TIl You Get Enough".

basically...

hip hop and rap music is built up off of samplin' and intepolatin' others' music so it kinda it what it is in regards to that

somebody catch me up to speed on this whole fiasco.... did robin thicke and pharrell not give proper credit to the marvin gaye estate for marvin's "got to give it up" song"?

because if that's the case, that's funny as fukk when it's so obvious where the sound "blurred lines" comes from

too many legendary black artists, musicians, entertainers etc have gotten the short end of the stick for so long. it's great to hear a legendary artist's work didn't get lost in the shuffle or as the coli says "thrown in the bushes"

great win for marvin gaye's family and estate

pharrell made that mistake...

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

See they should of gave up the dough from the beginning but they tried to play tough. Now they will have to give up publishing. "Blurred Lines" sold 7x Platinum in the U.S. and over 15 Million Worldwide. Marvin Gaye's son about to eat.

TI is already a known busta ass snitch. But I am very disappointed in Pharrells behavior. he was a very talented producer but chose to rob and exploit the legacies of one of the greatest of our generations,all for a white boy.

TI would do anything for a dollar, thats why protecting the ass of Iggy Azelia religiously.

 

[CodeBlaMeVi]

Do not forget "Working Day and Night".

 

[eerieBell]

While I agree that the song is a clear rip off, I can't help but wonder how many songs are "inspired" in a similar way out there.

I don't think this gonna stop on this one.
