Manager was like "i cant really tell u who's at fault"

YOU, are at fault. Youre the manager...so manage shyt

damn man... that song was everywhere too...

That’s what people who copywriters do.

1. If you’re directly competing against their business, they will shut u down.

2. If not, they simply wait until you generate a ton of money and then get you on the backend. If he would’ve gotten it cleared before releasing it, it may have cost him a few hundred thousand on the high end. But after it dropped, then exploded, not only did the value increase, but they wasn’t going to be able to just pull it or re-write it.

@ sisqo talking about, "I got a relationship with so and so" just cause he daps you at a party here and there don't mean he gonna leave money on the table when the opportunity arises. The business of business is business.

Lol @ anyone who enters the music industry and believes anyone is a friend. That's why the westside gunn shyt from a couple months back was hilarious. People were mad at the producer for calling out what seemed to be shady practices. "But you're not on yet, this is how it works!"

You don't talk to dudes about credit, they'll try and give you an unequal amount or none at all if they can.

You don't speak about clearing seemingly innocuous phrases or notes and then people will try and take exorbitant amounts because they can.

A lot of these guys hate when your business is on point cause they can't take advantage of the happy idiot.

I always hated that part too....it served literally no purpose

That was one of the most catchiest parts of the song

Not to mention the line was one of the biggest songs less than a year prior which was also catchy.

Once approached by Ricky Martin's lawyer, could sisqo just not censor/snip that verse and run with that?
Like many tracks released now, someone will bytch about a verse or slang word, and then it'll be blanked out.

It was probably too late.

This was when people were still buying CD’s and cassette tapes. They would’ve had to pull all of that shyt from stores, warehouses, everywhere, and print it all over again.

 

[Complexion]

Wow.

The ladies loved it, true

But, la vida loca was already played out and the entire song was dope without it. He didn't need a Ricky Martin bump, it was like pandering to an audience that you already had in the palm of your hand

 

[Neuromancer]

He looks like Darrius MCcray.

 

[Kiyoshi-Dono]

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

He could have said

"She's crazy Cray Cray" and it would have saved R and B.

 

[Hopeofmypeople]

Wow that little line, so do they get royalties for the song as well or was it a one time paid and done deal.
