I posted a while ago I thought this video was pure CRAP on the level of creativity because it's a rip off of Michael Jackson, Eddy Grant, and Belle Epoque ("Miss Broadway" song--look it up). Recently, somene responded... the comment is buried, but they wrote, and I am quoting them word for word "Your comments is garbage! case closed!"
That response to me speaks for itself, it requires no "reply" from me, but rather, a mere reposting by me for all to see. : )
1. The artist is obviously paying homage to Michael Jackson's BILLIE JEAN, since he is doing the lighted squares in the video and stealing the percussion/beat from that song.
2. The background is RIPPED OFF a song called "Miss Broadway" by the European group BELLE EPOQUE which came out in the late 1970's.
3. This grand theft of a song was released in 1997...which also steals Eddy Grant's lyric to Elect. Ave.
@MathewRusso ....and since when was hip-hop ever about original beats? Chuck D even said in 1988 "this is a sampling sport". Of COURSE it's a "rip off".
For the record, I'm not saying all hip hop is a "rip off." One person's opinion of what something is doesn't define it. The bottom line is if I were to make a painting, say of "the Scream" and change it around a bit, and incorporate other works from other known pieces into it--it's still the farthest thing from original.
Each person is entitled to their own opinion.. Mine is such that if something is begged borrowed and stolen to this degree--it's not art, it's pure shit.
@ingawdywetrust .....you're right mate, but "as good as"? I'd have to say this dumps from a great height on any the covers/remakes by Puff Daddy/P Diddy (or whatever that tool's name is).
@Moneyhands19 Tupac, PE, Wu-Tang, Biggie, Nas, Dre, OutKast etc ran 90's rap, and are still dope today. Puff was shit in the 90's and now he's just a huge flaming tower of money-loving, pop-singing turd. Britney Spears has more credibility (and that's saying a lot).
And damn, I never knew there was a video for this. Quite weird, frankly, but the tune is still as catchy as ever.
I remember this coming out like 10 years ago or something like that. I used to keep playing it becasue it had the MJ moves and some of the flava of my favourite MJ song Billie Jean..... Good tune...

2. The background is RIPPED OFF a song called "Miss Broadway" by the European group BELLE EPOQUE which came out in the late 1970's.

What's so controversial about the lines "Out in the street there is violence (yeah, uhh)

Down dere in Queens there is violence (QBC)
And there's a lot of work to be done, Lord
Down in the ghetto there violence (out in the streets)
Out in L.A. there is violence (Compton)
In Miami there is violence (Miami Vice, yeah)
And there's a lot of work to be done, Lord (yo, c'mon, yo)"
