@jooxington Yeah man, that's Matt Bable! He was a former VJ on MuchMusic. He made appearances in Sunday Morning, I Wish I Knew Natalie Portman, and 4 3 2 1, all by K-OS! K-OS and Matt are both Toronto, Ontario natives.
@McCarthyRulez Lol actually no. K-os sampled the beat he didn't steal it. As for the lyrics, you're a fool if you think he stole them. The only common ground they have is "I've been on the run" juxtaposed to Phantom Planets "we've been on the run. Also they both mention a gun in the beginning "When you were under the gun" (k-os) and "hustlers grab your guns". Not to mention K-os' verse lyrics would double Phantom Planets. If it wasn't for the oc that shit wouldn't be famous,it's repetitive junk
@McCarthyRulez Except that they aren't similar. Granted he sampled the backing but the lyrics are completely different which disregards your comments of him being a thief. The difference between sampling and stealing being he had permission to use the music. Don't mac K-os when you clearly don't know anything about his music (or music in general)
@skateeathockeysoccer Its called some place in Ontario where Matt babel works as a garageman OK! Nice song, nice town! Wish I knew the name so that I might go there in the near future....

All rappers sample tunes, melodies, lyrics, flows etc from many different artist, genres, movies, books, etc... always has happened.

This song is such a steal from the OC (Orange County) Theme Song, look it up!

@McCarthyRulez
you mean the OC used this rhythm as their theme song and put different lyrics on it? I think you had it the other way around...

No, K-OS stole the beat and most of the lyrics actually from the OC. The OC was out way before this song.

@MetalMuffinss All I'm saying is that there really similar, and they are. I couldn't care less whether K-OS actually stole them or "sampled" them...

The LYRICS are not the same as the OC! Have you heard the OC song? Stop being ignorant.
