So is Tempest and GRG going to be paid royalties by Geffen now?
I think they should try contacting the EFF for legal help.
They would probably take on a case like this "pro bono".

tempest and grg are obviously not gonna sit here and do nothing about it. I'd say best would be if they settle this out of court and get a nice amount of $$ from timbalamer.

edit: lol @ dane! ;)

wow, amazing stuff. He claims he wrote the song, which we all knew anyway.

Nothing like a fresh perspective on a situation :)

Sounds like they mixed in the arpeggio from the Tempest tune in the "Do It" song.

Oh shit.. I just put on my headphones (was listening to it through my laptop speakers) and suddenly the whole song shows up in the mix... WTF?.. It really seems to be the GRG version in the key of the original Tempest song (B flat minor).

For a moment there I couldn't see what the fuzz was about, but man.. this is BAD FORM from the Furtado producers.

Dane: Gwahahaha, yuo just saved my day! What interesting is that this affair has put some real issues to light! Peoples around the net has a scary way of look upon copyrightlaws. Every hiphop lamer thinks that as long as a sampler has being involved you can steal whatever you want! Whats funny is that Timbaland manage to cross my favourite genre with my alltime hate genre.

icon bwoy, 'do it' is not a rap song
i'm actually amazed that so many people liked it whilst laughing at the original sid sound. it must be a matter of vocals' presence
