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

It's still an awfully lame behaviour to sample a tune like that & take all the credit for it. I've noticed though that this story is spreading rapidly across the net so even if Tempets won't get a single penny for his effort at least Timbaland's reputation might get Damaged. At least I hope so.

ah so what it comes down to is that a part of the scene has envy on the simple fact that timbaland makes money by ripping of a scene artist?

And do we suddenly forget that the scene has been ripping of artists since the beginning of that scene and never paid a single penny for that.

Did Bastian paid Jeroen Tel money for using some of Jeroen's sounds in his tracks? You've got my love has a sample of Rubicon dual speed if my ears don't deceive me.

Or should we all form a lynch mob and kill the borrowing/stealing bastards with a spoon (cause it will hurt more) just for the sake of well revenge for someone who wishes not to defend himself?

Should we declare war on the entire dance/hiphop world, because they to sample parts of music. And yes i heard some sid sample's and melody line's in various tunes too.

Come on people. get real and get a life. Stop pretending to be holier then the pope and the Dalai lama together.
