Timbaland rips song - new information

The producer Timbaland seems to have used a six year old song from a finish musician and used it for the song "Do it" by Nelly Furtado.

See my first video for more details about that:

New information has now come up that suggests that not only did he use it for the Nelly Furtado track, but also to sell "his own original ringtones" a year earlier.

Watch this video to see for yourself!

I would like to add something else too: the point of these videos was to show the similarities between the songs. For some reason that is completely foreign to me, some users feel that this is the forum to express their hateful and racist comments about other people. I WILL NOT TOLERATE SUCH BEHAVIOUR! If you want to comment the videos, that is fine, but BE ADULT ABOUT IT! If the only thing that you can think of writing is something you wouldn't like said about yourself then don't write it.

If the hateful and racist comments continue, I will simply disable the commenting-feature.

Thank you for your time.

Music industry is against illegal music copies and producers do this?

@tarbash995 if he gave credit then why did the original composer sue for stealing the songs? I swear Timbaland fanboys are so damn stupid. You stay on his balls and suck his dick like it gives you life.

The next one who writes that "he is only sampling" is a drunken, stupid monkey!

@PlanetarySyndicate Oh boy... YES, he is sampling, but he is also stealing... When TL samples your song and make a remix, then it is called Timberland vs PlanetarySyndicate and you also get the money and credit. But when TL takes YOUR own made PlanetarySyndicate song 1:1, mixes a beat to it (and every child can do that) and get millions with it and even didnt call you to give you your money for making this song he is stealing YOUR SONG while sampling/copying it 1:1... Wake up...

Janne Suni sued Timbaland and they have made a deal, the deal just isnt published.. but still the timbaland is a fucking joke and i bet he wouldnt like people stealing his song without giving him a profit.

@ZeroCorpse No Hes Sampling

[outzider]

@WhyNotMeTellMe Because he didn't ask permission, from the words of the original author.

[RobTheBuilder]

@poopr1221 It would be fine if he credited them, but to say nothing is just theft.

[OBSysteme]

@ZeroCorpse I don't know how many times we have to repeat it. Are people that dumb that they don't understand what is stealing a creation and passing it as you own?

[somesortanaughty]

don't like him, never did.. he just doesn't come across genuine in any way at all, and therefore none of this surprises me. Nothing to do with color, people are people no matter what color.

[WhyNotMeTellMe]

HOW do you know, maybe he asked a permission or smth ? you can't judge by just hearing... if you judge like that, then you can also say same thing to Enrique Iglesias, that hes stealing music, like Tired Of Being Sorry. The original song is by Ringside. BUT if you take a closer look, then enrique asked a permission or smth, so he made a little better song of it!!!!! READ THIS HATERS!
