I suspect he's jealous that his impact on modern culture is less than a zillionth of theirs.

Yeah, it is notoriusly hard to get clearance for Beatles samples, but I'd wager that there are a lot of records that sample something like a drum sound or some other non-easily identifiable fragment, plus i imagine there would have been quite a few under the radar 12"s released the 80s before sample laws got really tight, or DJs using Beatles stuff in live mixes that they couldn't put in a track without getting done.

The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu tried and failed (to use a Beatles sample) on their "All You Need Is Love", didn't they? I know it was Abba that took the legal action, but I think that Apple / Northern Songs gave them a bit of a hard time too.

Those are legit samples I posted. Though the BDP one is just an acapella paraphrasing, ha.

Summer is a very, very bad person. Very bad. She should come over here and get spanked.

[summer]

Dammit I hate summer's guts. He only listens to bluegrass and hip-hop.

[ZEROpumpkins]

Seriously though your statement was just an obvious attempt at attention grabbing.

[gmku]

She's 58. Her mind is gone. Leave her alone.

[ZEROpumpkins]

a) she's a he
b) he's obviously not 58
c) i'm pretty sure you're joking

[gmku]

Damn. OK, no spanking then. I thought with the goofy threads he was making that surely... never mind.

I think it's the name that does it.

Don't blame me, blame SYRFox, he's the one who gave me this username. If I come off as feminine and 50 years old.. then.. he did it.

[noisereductions]

Summer here kids... Summer here totally lies.

Good God, man, get some bollocks! You weren't even man enough to come up with your own user name? Fucking hell.

[SYRFox]

Oh I'm one shameless bastard

[afterthefact]

summer, summer, please... I want to be able to back you up because of the KY connection (the state, not the jelly) but you are making it so hard.

You are acting like a cat backed into a corner, but instead of hissing, you are just calling everybody an elitist.

[PAULYBEE2656]

this isnt elitism...the next statement is fact

what have the beatles ever done for hip hop?
three words tomorrow never knows.....
if that song didnt exist, the chemical brothers would still be selling coke fridges and bathroom plungers!
