I believe 'stylo' falls into fair use of the DMCA considering if you listen to the time warp scene in stylo it does NOT play for the entire song. I don't recall seeing anyone getting sucessfully sued over using 20 seconds of someone elses work in their own. I think Eddy Grant needs to stop complaining and save his cash on lawyer fees.
Yep Gorillaz did a rip no doubt only someone fool in total denial would try to lie their way out of this one. If I was Eddy I wouldn't care, but at least shoot me from the front instead from the back.
I agree, they are similar but I don't think the Gorrilaz would do that. Song similarity happens sometimes when certain groups or artist have the same style.
love the way you seed up the gorillaz lyrics.... preety good beat... and i personaly think eddy is just making a scene to get back into the media....horrible what people do these days for money

@AspenAxL2 David Bowie/Queen successfully sued Vanilla Ice for using the baseline beat from "Changes" in his title anthem, "Ice Ice Baby".

so uhm what makes you think they wouldn't do it? know them personally? they give to a charity you like?
just cause someone has hits doesn't make them a saint.
