Modest Mouse or Lupe Fiasco.

[quote=Toshabi][quote=Xaioli] artists release music because they... want to make a shitload of money. [/quote] Now that's better.[/quote]

[quote=Canoas][quote=Dremu] Well know shit I realize this, but he basically stole it to make it a rap song, Cos rappers don't know how to make their own beats they have to use other artists. That's why i lose respect for any rapper who uses a great song as their own, it ruins it. Lupe's song is cool but i wish he'd use his own beat. I'm not ignorant enough to believe he just stole the beat without asking for it or paying for it, Obviously that is illegal. But i'm saying it's really stupid that he can't make his own. [/quote] Then don't say he stole. By saying he stole the beat then you're saying he stole the beat. Can you see the similarity between the words you used and their meaning? And rappers don't know how to make their own beats? Are you kidding me? You're just butthurt cause modest mouse sold their song for nothing but cash. Well, guess what? It was modest mouse's choice, so if you're going to insult someone then insult modest mouse. If Lupe hears the beat and thinks he can make a good song out of it, then good for him and his fans. The music he made with it is actually pretty good, if not better. If modest mouse pissed off their fans by selling the rights to the beat then it's modest mouse's problem, and it's their fault their fans are pissed, so start insulting them instead of Lupe and other rappers.[/quote]

[quote=Atarios]I prefer the stolen one :P[/quote]

[quote=Skrallz]Lupe Fiasco is better :) Anyways let me tell you something. Singers/Rappers : Do not make Beats Producers : Makes Beats Bands : Make songs, not beats People that play instruments : Makes instrumentals[/quote]

[quote=Dremu][quote=Xaioli] Lupe Fiasco and Eminem are lyrical masterminds. Anyways, If Lupe stole it w/o purchasing/permission, shit would have gone down the second the album got released. Also Dremu, stop being butthurt. It's fine with permission. If you don't like the song, so be it, there's always gotta be that song no one likes. However, don't be that guy that goes around, OOOH I DONT LIKE HIM ANYMORE CAUSE OF ONE DUMB THING. I hear music all the time with a catchy beat. I sing it around my house, places a go. However, I mix up the lyrics a bit because I think I can make it sound better, or because I don't know what the full lyrics are. The same goes for rappers, singers and anyone, including Lupe Fiasco. He liked the tune, he got permission and decided to share it with the world. Every artist knows that when they release a 'copied' song to the public, it'd be recognized. Real ballsy, but artists release music because they... want to share their talent with the world. [/quote] You guys aren't getting what i'm saying... I like lupe's song and him. What i'm saying is i like modest mouse more though, never said it was illegally stolen sheesh, I'm asking what you guys like more. Not if they stole or not just tell em WHO DO YO LIKE MORE INSTEAD OF SAING OMG DREMU HE DIDN'T STEAL OMG SHIT BALLS JESUS CRACKER...sheesh people l2read what i post. I love Modest Mouse, my issue is that people always hear like Lupe's song and then don't know modest mouse at all, and say hey i like this song it's original i wish it would say "Lupe Fiasco - Show goes on (used modest mouse beat in song)" instead of people just thinking that show goes on is the original beat, song etc. I like em both but modest mous emore, now back on topic which do you like more?[/quote]

[quote=Canoas]Stealing is always illegal, so if you say he stole the beat the you are implying he committed a crime. If you did not want people to comment on the fact that you said he stole the beat then you should have made such accusations in the first place. Also, Modest Mouse signed a contract and they knew that people would listen to Lupe's song without knowing where the beat comes from and were OK with, so why shouldn't you be? That's like saying there should be the names of everyone who worked on Iphone 4 written on it's back since it's not fair Steve Jobs is the only one getting the attention.[/quote]

[quote=Dremu]OMFG I NEVER SAID HE STOLE THE BEAT GOOD JOB GOING OFF TOPIC CLOSE THIS THREAD PEOPLE ARE IGNORANT[/quote]
