You obviously refuse to listen to what I’m saying.
See that's the thing
first I didn't HEAR it until someone TOLD me what to listen for...
that to me that matters.
and this song has been out for YEARS now...
that should ALSO count for something.
If we doing this
then how many damn PRINCE clones out here?
so Jenelle Monet Maxwell D'Angelo just to start...
basically the only way OUT of these type of suits in the future?
Just say OUT FRONT
much like Childish Gambino did on his LAST album...
Prince "inspired" me...
and not pay sh*t.
Ed will lose after the plaintiffs introduce as evidence this live performance of his from 2014. Skip to 4:28.Couple years ago I turned to Tom Joyner on the radio when they were doing the old school/new school remix. They were playing "Let's Get It On" and when it got to the chorus they dubbed Sheeran's vocals in rhythm...I was like
Lol naw nigga you just wrong
Cite them cases you was so sure about two posts ago famzu
We just debating. Prove me wrong pimp.
Everything song almost puts you in the mind of something.
First time I heard Tennessee Whiskey I was like WTF?

CACs doing what CACs do........leech.
Like I said you not listening to what I’m saying I’m not talking about actual court cases I’m talking about accusations of producers stealing from no name producers or past songs. It happens all the damn time b. It’s damn near impossible to prove but there have been mad no name people accusing big producers of stealing their shit. Niggas send un solicited beats trying to get on only to end up having that shit jacked. If you’re in demand you can’t do it all on your own , either you hire a ghost producer or you start stealing shit it happens
That's true.
But that is not this.
I feel like you switched that thang up on me mid discussion a lil bit lol
Not at all b that’s what I was talking about the whole time lol
Yep.
I see what they mean.
I think it's also sounds very similar to this...
I think it's also sounds very similar to this...
Chuck Berry had a profound influence on the Rolling Stones, particularly on Keith Richards, who said of Mr. Berry: “I’ve stolen every lick he ever played.”
Somebody posted the nigga Elvis bit the other day. Them muhfuckas ain't shit.
Who?
A lot of ppl heard it, and this is damn near an admission of guilt... His song fits perfectly over the original.
You let a song "live" in the world / on the charts to make as much money as possible, no need to kill its momentum, let it stay at #1 on billboard and ring up all those $ales so you can claim more in damage$$$ later. When they went after "Blurred Lines" they let it go almost 2 years for that very reason.
You can't get millions if you sue a song thats only been out 2 months, it probably hasn't made much money by then
Exactly right this is what a producer explained on a podcast I listened to a few yrs back imma try to find it in the morning
good points
yeah this can sorta fit in there but now , guess whats even more crazy ,is that this calvin's joint and his vocal approach sounds like " i wanna be ur man' by by Zapp Roger
and u can also add this .........the end phrase of the hook is also "crazy Love" by Van Morrison 27sec mark
Love Love Love Love crazy love
=
we found love right where we are
Love Love Love Love crazy love
=
we found love right where we are
The very first time I heard this song, I said "WTF are you doing, Ed?" This is going to come back hard on you!
Ed Sheeran has some talent. I discovered Ed completely by accident browsing youtube long before he was big. His video had abut 7500 views. It was this song called "Class A Team" and it was about a chick who is a junkie and at the end of the vid she dies but it brings you back to the beginning of the vid which was like the last moment of her life. I was like "this cat is gonna blow up", and he did. I watched an interview and he was talking about how much he liked R&B and was like "huh, really?" I didn't expect that from him. When he dropped "Don't" last year, I could see this coming. Pop pressure kicking in. Whenever somebody who is somewhat talented becomes a pop star, plagiarism is almost inevitable.
I'm kinda surprised that his team stooped to a blatant rip like this. I bet this started as a jam in a rehearsal and Ed started singing some shit over Marvin Gaye and they just said "fuck it" and put it out. I bet at some point Ed Sheeran asked somebody close "Are you sure this is going to be okay?" and they said "It'll be fine, just do it."
