Amazing research that will lead to a lawsuit
That's an incredible flip

This song and God Pt 3 are what put me on to Mobb Deep back in the day
It's all sampling obvious or not.
Some of the best rap songs in history are obvious loops.
I'm pretty sure Havoc doesn't want to risk a law suit.

This isn’t my area of law, but I’ve done some bare bones research on this just out of interest, years ago.
Number one - there is absolutely a statute of limitations that has long since run on all the album/singles sales of the past 20 or so years. That being said, it has not run on sales/streaming of the past few years and the future. So worst possible outcome, the song could be removed from Spotify/YouTube etc. Any unsold physical copies of Hell on Earth with the song would be pulled.
That being said, as I recall, the odds of that occurring are essentially zero because in order to win in this type of lawsuit you have to prove that the sample is recognizable. That’s why we haven’t seen any lawsuits related to Shook Ones Pt 2 or Survival of The Fittest and those songs are still up on streaming services, even though the samples were discovered years ago. Because Hav modified the hell out of those samples and rendered them unrecognizable for decades, there is no case.

Hav might be the best ever at changing the pitch to make things unrecognizable. This is real similar to what we did on Eye For An Eye and Shook Ones 2

kinda dirty if a lawsuit comes from this

Agreed, but I think it'll be clear. Nothing happened when the Shook Ones and Survival of the Fittest samples were posted almost 10 years ago, and this has been a lot longer, with likely less people paying attention.
That era was when producing was at its peak in hip hop. No question about it.
Yeah, shyt like this was a key contributor that killed the "diggin" culture for big time producers.

Right, it's about what you do with it

There's no need for Dre to flip his samples. You don't mess with perfection.
Have obviously needed to do what he did to get things to sound right to him.
Neither is right or wrong.
