I'll try to post it

Edit here it is time stamped

LOL. I found this out some years ago by accident. I was going through a Roland Keyboard (can't remember which one) and was listening to the demo songs that the keyboard would play back. I was in the Brass category and heard some demos and I was like "Why TF does this sound familiar?" Couldn't put my finger on it til it hit me that it was the melody for "Down Bottom".

They're time stamped



Whole time I thought Swizz played that shit lol.

Lmao nah this is too far Swizz tut tut

More Charlatan activities
1979


1980


The story is the bassist from Queen was banging out with Chic’s bassist in the studio while they were tracking the Good Times baseline

and well was “ inspired”

FINALLY somebody calls this bullshit out. Shit been bothering me for decades and it never gets talked about. While we're calling out artists that have decades worth of biting material on their jacket...





You're gonna sit here and tell me that a movie that was part of a franchise that already went on for way too long, which already got denied the use of the aforementioned Queen song, was the ONLY inspiration for one of the most cheesy songs in music history... and I'm supposed to believe that? Eat glass nigga.

You think that's bad... nowadays niggas is literally buying loops online and passing them off as their own beats. And it's not like this where you find some preset shit in a keyboard or VST (FL got some fire shit lowkey... I heard Young Thug use one in an old song). I'd rather producers find something in a rare keyboard or an old toy from the 60s than use underpaid session musicians to make their beats for them. There aren't enough Speak N Say beats out there.

Trust me bro I know aaaallll about it. Literally have a beat made in 1-2 minutes. Just drag and drop some Guitar/flute/piano etc loop. Then add a drum loop right after that then boom. Beat done. Or they got Midi packs where they drag and drop midi on a VST sound and boom. Chords already made for you.

Stupid thing is when some other person uses the same loop and post it on youtube through distrokid or some type of distribution service you'll get a copyright strike on that beat if/when you post it on youtube. Now you can't even try and sell that shit because somebody already got a beat/song copyrighted with that same loop. lol smh.

This the reason why this shit so saturated. but it is what it is.
