The concept of what he's talking about has existed long before YouTube. Blends weren't just putting songs over different beats, even though that would count as far as who's being paid, and authorization, for his gripe. For some DJs that's what they specialized in, but for others they also included cut/copy and paste random official verses put together and labeled as new songs. All those artists that used to complain that such and such "stole their vocals from song...". There just weren't videos for it, and they weren't accessible as easily for everyone to where the fake version was more known than the official. People pointed out Napster tracks for comparisons. I've always called them fake collabos...same ish meth called them or Copy n paste fakes

Someone doing it via YouTube is still no different than that random DJs acquiring verses of already produced songs and mixing them up, changing the beat, calling it something else, and putting it out officially unofficial. And the way to fight it is still the same, C&D them. Or get them shut down with muscle, like they did with the random DJs. Or they can promote the real song/verse.
Dirty harry made blends. He dont have an entire channel of fake blends promoted as new songs exclusive to HIS channel conplete with stolen videos badly synced to appear more than they are. He isnt saying “cooking soul” cant make remixes on his channel with his own beats. Mariah carey the roof remixes. None are real. They are freestyles on top of her song. Noone is talking about that. THATS HIP HOP.

These people just make moneynoff stuff they can. create fake content with stolen videos and songs for the purpose of making money. Not promoting hip hop. Not promoting their beats. Those AI channels for example are not there to promote the genre. They are there to bring in cash to faceless people. Mass uploads. Try and ring off.. They make thousands of dollars off videos and songs they dont own a shred of. None of the videos they use get a dime. Nonenof the songs they use geta. Dime. Yet are ONLINE to be STREAMED. On billion dollar platforms. NOT HAND TO HAND. Djs gave you promotion for ya exclusives. This aint promotion.


This is way deeper than a blend. They run ads. They get donations. Run patreons where they give away entire discographies of stolen material if you sign up with them , promoted from YOUTUBE. Patreon and youtube get their piece. The people who made the songs, lyrics, beats, videos get NOTHING. Meth was on drink champs and nore asked him “saw ya new song with nas the video. Was dope” and meth was confused. they purposely create confusion if the song real at all and then push it out as “NEW METHOD MAN”.

Djs went got fined, arrested by feds, all types of shytnover this. From tapes in garages. Mixtape.com This is online for millions on YOUTUBE. SPOTIFY. PATREON. aint no raids tho. They dont even get taken down. Spotify flooded with FAKE releases rn. Why am i seeing fake releases with no names when i goto real streaming platforms? Why are the rappers getting NOTHING You cant monitor mixtapes and used every chance they couod to shut it down online. Yet this been going on. Not free on DATPIFF… actual generated money.

And goto those channels comments. Ask if they new. See if you get an answer. You acting like they struggling up n coming djs tryna get noticed. Using their own production. Some do. That channel he called out does not. They do nothing but leech.

It was on FB and I can't seem to link to it here. He has a really good point. These videos have hundreds of thousands of views each and countless comments from people who don't realise they're just blends with videos attached. And shyt ones at that.

:salute:

I don’t know why this is a thing.. but I hate the fact that ppl do these unauthorized remakes of records with fake collabs .. this guy I asked him a long time ago to take this trash down as it takes views away from the original content.. and he still has yet to do so.. over 200 mil views and not one penny to the creators.. no one takes into account the time and effort it takes to even make these records let along get these records, put out into the public for someone to come and do half the work and get twice if not quadruple the views of the original content.. whatever happened to IP rights..? Whenever I sample a record I have to inform the original creators and ask for permission to do so.. what makes YouTube any different? I am pretty sure you guys have seen a lot of these fake remixes but a lot of people don’t know they’re fake. I’ve heard my voice on beats I would never rhyme to.. and a lot of times the verses are offbeat..
this is what we call hack shyt and I don’t respect it .. the main culprits are south central channel , golden age hip hop , and New Yorks finest to name a few.. and the person responsible for this piece of work Dj Skandalous actually reached out to make things right.. my reply was take the video down.. as you can see the video was never taken down.. he informed me though that he makes no money off of the video. My reply is then you should have no problem taking it down… but I guess it looks like he does.. so I’ll just leave this here and let the fans be the judge.. am I wrong for standing up or should I just sit down and shut the f*** up?


this dialogue.

Is why I do not put music up.

Unless fully published.
If you not setting up any forums of dialogue. To meet administratively.
about the publishing portal. To discuss rights. You are not a publishing house. I would ever consider doing anything with ever.

So get your workflows, dialogue and administrative mind together.

If you really are a publisher.
If you not. You are a casual and I will sue you. If you steal from me.

I will throw liability damaging administration and procurement.
till we both In the gutter and your company is no more. Play with it and wind up with a cease and desist.

That goes for all you goofies. Who think you gon play krs steals from Marley marl ass games.

you won't own nuffin no more.

I am a real closer.

board room to block....

let me give you examples because some of you keep talking about blends. That's NOT what Meth is talking about.

THIS IS A BLEND. it is Wutang over Mario Bros and it's promoted as such. It's promoted as a remix/blend letting the audience know, "this isn't a new song".



HERE IS THE BULLshyt METH REFERS TO. Below is a bullshyt mix put together from taking stems making the acapella horrible quality, while promoting it on their shytty youtube channels as new songs. Once you click it and see it's a fake, it's too late. It's a view counted. They even put together clips from older videos leading people to believe it's a new songs. This youtuber has 1 million subscribers and gets millions of views off fake songs. NOT BLENDS/REMIXES, but fake songs fooling fans into believing they are new collabs. Do you understand?

shyts garbage.

Only thing worse is when you search for a song but don't click the artists channel or official video/song and then some dumb ass mf starts rapping.

That's never worked. No one ever clicked Kendrick Lamar - Not like us then heard some bum ass dude rapping into his cell phone and was like "hey, this is actually nice :ohhh:, you got more songs? What's the links to your page???"

This is one of many reasons why Method Man is one of the realest.

I fukking hate those channels and they make some of the worst limewire era offbeat trash. We as thecoli gotta start mass reporting those channels. That way some of their content might get shut down.

It's against copyrights what they're doing.

Method starts to sound bitter :francis:
Complaining on the festival audience, Spotify income, fake channels.
No.

Fake channels is a real problem. You've seen them? There are fake news gossip pages with headlines saying crazy shyt like rapper A being sent to prison for life or rapper B getting shot, etc. Which never happened.

Then those lame ass channels using rappers material to mess up the algorithm and give the audience music that rappers can't make money from. Those channels don't care about rappers and they most likely profit via fan donations, etc. fukk them.

Dude said like a few weeks ago he never saw a dime from Spotify, if the issue is money he should deal with Spotify before dealing with some goofy fake channels
