those f*ckers.

It's called sampling you dumb sh*ts

-8

it isnt sampling when you eip the entire song and stick a beat to it...

+3

laser, you have to credit your samples, you DUMB SH*T.

how to make a rap/hip-hop song: 1. listen to classic rock or 70s/80s pop until you find a good enough beat to steal. 2. create an easily memorable and repeatable chorus. 3. make sure the chorus takes up at least 70% of the song. 4. make intro/outro and a verse take up the remaining 30% of the song. 5. get black people to like it, and in 2 to 3 weeks white people will follow suit. 6. retire after having made more money off of 1 sh*tty song than most people will in their entire lifetime.

F ucking outrageous. At least give the guy a little bit of advertising if you're going to be a no talent f ucking hack and steal the guy's music. Timbaland = sack of sh it.

Doesn't surprise me at all.

Screw the big man.

So anyway, Smelly Furtaco a new enemy of the YTMNDocracy?

that is wrong! of Timbajerks. INSERT ANGRY LEX HERE: WRONG!!!!!

Excellent presentation of an issue that's been on my mind since it was brought to light this weekend.

what a dick

interesting if true

he will be punished!

I knew there was a reason I hated him.

+1

I don't get why those guys would so blatantly steal from Timbaland. I mean, come on. Artists in the hip-hop community care deeply about their music. Enough to kill for it. And when they put so much hard work into creating their own beats just to be stolen by some no-name kid off the streets, well I think it's just wrong. Timbaland is a victim.

+2

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timbaland wiki has it covered

Good job spreading the word, heard about this the other day.

2007-01-15 18:23:02 Korf41 ummm Timbaland is a victim. actually he stole the song..............

THAT IS JUST FUKT UP MAN

COOKIE 4 U ^_^

You would be better of if you got rid of the Ebaum comparison. Considering how many sites here are stolen from 4chan, SA, and various forums we have no moral high ground. Sadly thisn't isn't new either. Jet stole Iggy Pop's riff from "Lust for life" and RHCP's "Dani California" is almost an exact copy of Tom Petty's "Mary Jane's last dance" just to name a few.

-2

The difference between ytmnd and ebaum: YTMND is a site with many different people who post whatever they want, Ebaumsworld is a site where one man (or maybie 2 or 3 working with him) takes stuff and puts it on his own website. Our whole website can't claim suckness because of a few (hundred) who steal. Eric Bauman is but one man. This is what seperates us from stealing apes and men.

+2

I thought I was the only one on Earth to notice the Dani Cali and Mary Jane connection, haha. They're the EXACT same f*cking song, and I'm pretty sure RHCP won like.. best album.. and best rock song and sh*t.

5 thanks for the heads up

Why's the guy not pursuing legal action? Attorneys are expensive, but they're not THAT expensive. Considering the potential millions he'd be due in royalty checks, it'd be more than worth the risk. More than likely it wouldn't even go to trial, considering the evidence. And I'll bet the label would settle out of court just to avoid the bad press.

Just more proof that there is no more originality nor shame in the music industry today. *sigh*

N*GG* STOLE~N*GG* STOLE~N*GG* STOLE MY INSTRUMENTAL OH NOES

"You would be better of if you got rid of the Ebaum comparison. Considering how many sites here are stolen from 4chan, SA, and various forums we have no moral high ground." The difference here is that we are not making any money from it.

He needs to find a lawyer to take the case pro bono. I know patent lawyers have systems set in place where paying legal fees can be put on hold so a corporation can't nickel-and-dime the people suing them. Maybe there's a similar way out here. This post probably doesn't make any sense. Ciao.

Sponsored with the same amount of royalties that Timbaland will pay these demo makers

That's pretty sad. The original ones are sweet... :(

have you guys been living in boxes for the past 15 years of hip-hop/rap?

the norm doesn't justify the action cooke.

F*cking n*gg*rs.

sounds like a job for pheonix wright

A BLACK guy stole something? No!

+2

klasky, you're right

nobody cares lol

for great justice

Just goes to show you how unoriginal rap artists are,from covering old kids songs,to cool techno beats,they just aren't even trying anymore. I say he gets some solid evidence and blow them out of the water,since that crap appears on MTV so damn much,it would hurt them pretty bad,well it's like I say,you can't spell crap without"rap". I now actually miss when rap was tolerable and relevant and not about sex and drug and getting laid. 5'd for solid work.

There's plenty of good Hip Hop/Rap (And Country for that matter) to be found if you're actually inclined to do some digging yourself. It seems to me that you're basing your hatred on some stupid principle rather than actual insight.

wow

FOR GREAT JUSTICE

This kind of stuff always pisses me off.

It is Time that YTMND's true nature shall be heard throughout the world, we are the protectors of the weak, and the honest, and the noble. We at YTMND must bring justice to an injustice, we cannot live another day while people out there steal for profit and fame, are you all with us, or against us, lets let the world know NOW !!!!!! 5/5

very nice music, kinda sad, really. great detective work.

DAMN N*GG*Z STEAL EVERYTHING

Meh, happens all the time with rap music. Timbaland happened to get caught because he was lazy and didn't even bother changing the sample. DJ Quik/Dr Dre got caught thiefing a sample a couple years back with that track "Addictive". I hope Timbaland gets the pants sued off him.

"The difference here is that we are not making any money from it." It doesn't matter if the people here are not making money. Creative stealing is wrong no matter what.

DEFENDERS OF THE INTERNETS! WE MUST PROTECT OUR SERIES OF TUBES! FREEEEEEEEEDOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMM!

They don't just steal your bike anymore...

Support the rebelion!

"Just more proof that there is no more originality nor shame in the music industry today. *sigh*" no theres still lots, just that you wont see any of it on mtv.

Don't blame Furtado for this, Timbaland is the guy who's supposed to come up with the "dope *ss beats". Nelly just sings and girates in music videos.

Once again, YTMND marches off to war....ah, it's so heart-warming! so brave!

Raid? Time and place? We're gonna have too many damn warfronts if we dont watch it.

:(

2 for wasting a good portion of my life

FOR GREAT JUSTICE!

the guy should pursue legal action, he would most likely win.

Boo, Timbaland!

I don't f*cking care

F*ck Hip hop and Nelly Furtado!

youre an idiot, hip-hop is all about sampling, he didn't "steal" it he sampled it. but what youre telling me is you bought the nelly furtado cd and looked through the credits in the booklet looking for the sample clearance and you didnt find it. wow i hope your mom knows how cool you are.

This is goiung to sound mean, but can I ahve a copy of the commodore 64 SID or the original? They both sound cool, i want them.

The amazing thing isn't that a rap producer didn't use an original source, because that's just commonplace enough in ALL forms of music dating back to the 1700's. As a jazz musician, I am encouraged to use quotes from other songs in my improvisations. No, the amazing thing, if this is a true story, is that someone like Timbaland is using a Commodore 64 conversion. Which just goes to show you: If you're gonna steal, steal from the best. And to those saying he'd win in a court of law....well, you're wrong.

meh

How sad, rich bastards. Its ok for them to steal.... f*ckin double standards.

Don't f*ck with Timbaland.

5 for everyone of your sites

Punisher support. ;D

give this man his money

mmm digg.

You can find the full version of Tempest's song here -> http://www.genietervan.com/hoerr/tempest_acidjazz.mp3 and a little bit of shameless self promotion here --> http://ytmndemocracy.ytmnd.com/ The song is also in full.

You didn't know rap is just stolen tunes?

that was pretty interesting

Well then, they are f*cking PUSSIES for not trying to sue.

the exact reason why i see rap as crap

who cares? it was a stupid commodore 64 chime, i could create one of those in like 5 seconds.

Defenders of the Internets UNITE! We share common bonds with our brothers and sisters at SA, 4chan, and elsewhere, but none of us get anything more than a hike in views and ratings for our passing along of unoriginal work. These n*gg*s is ridiing around in Escalades and tappin hos while sippin on Dom Perignon and throwin the rest of the bottle out. That's RL exploitation of other people's work.

SSSEEEEEGGGAAAAAAAAAAAAA

If there is some sort of raid, lemme know. :3

I hate slideshows.

Haw!

Nice PSA.

OH MY GOD

The origionals were better...

White power

Wow no wonder it's catchy, it wasn't written by Timaland!

this is a fantastical find/evidencial display of...evidence. but im not gonna lie, that nelly furtado thing was catchy. but that doesnt remove any of the shame. Timbaland can go shove a stick up his ass.

5'd, for great justice.

N*gg* stole my beat.

for great justice

Wow normally ebaumness pisses me off but man, get a f*cking life.

whine whine whine cry cry cry...

All they need to do is find a firm that will take the case on a contingency basis. That's not hard.

It's sh*tty this dumb n*gg*r decided to rip these guys off, but if neither is willing to pursue legal action, then what you are doing is iditotic. The guy doesn't realize how open and shut this case is. His own ignorance is sad, but instead of "spreading the word" moronically, you could start a donation site so that he can acquire adequate legal coverage. Just like how stupid so many people on this site are when ebaums rip them off, they donate money to make idiotic YTMNDs popular instead of hiring a lawyer

iv already emailed Byron Crawford about this! Lets hope something can get done.

Definitely food for thought. I hope however that you aren't implicating Furtado, who likely would have known nothing about from whence the sample came.

happens all the time

Timbaland = MEGA-NlGGER

Wow, a front page site without "deedee" post in site. Also, nice sync.

George Harrison got in trouble for "My Sweet Lord" in the 70's because it was so drastically similar to an earlier song.

n*gg* stole my music :(

how in the world did u fig this one out...wow?!?

maybe someone should say something???

5 FGJ!

f*ck u ur gay

worthy cause, well-made YTMND.

Stuff has this has happened so many times. The little guy HAS to sue, or they'll just get away with it over and over.

*like this....Stuff like this....

Just when you already hated hip hop enough...

Oh and: http://www.myspace.com/timbaland Have fun.

Whoever was trying to defend hip-hop/rap with "ever heard of sampling?! lol" is spewing a bunch of bullsh*t. Stealing is stealing, no matter what you call it. Sh*t like this is the reason Hip Hop is dying, which actually used to be a decent genere of music back when they could actually make an orignal song. Timbaland is a talentless prick who happenned to know the right people and pull the right strings. Thats all he is, nothing more. He wont be around in 2 years anyways so why the f*ck should I care.

5 for research and information

timbaland is fat.

I want to secks nelly furtado, however.

5'd to spread awareness, I suppose.

First off, hip-hop is some of the best music out there. There's nothing wrong with sampling other records for a track, but Timbaland should've been up front about it and give credit where credit's due. Indie rappers and producers generally don't worry about clearing samples, but for a major-label release like Furtado's album, he should've seeked permission. I'm sure that's what the label would've wanted, rather than dealing with a possible lawsuit.

Timberland needs to pay his dues. Nelly Furtado must report to my bedroom.

It's one thing to sample music, but it's another thing to not give credit. Eminem gave credit to Aerosmith for his sampling for dream on for one of eminem's songs

I heard about this already, on YouTube. your text even looks similar. I guess you didn't make money from this so it's okay, but the people who posted it on YouTube didn't make money either. I don't hate you for stealing, but there is a certain irony. as far as Timbaland goes, I like his music but I don't support his stealing of the song. Also, Finland is the ballsack of northern Europe- check a map

5'd because I haaaaaaate Timbaland

5'd. N*gg* stole my sequence

thooose bitcheess!!!

N*gg* stole my music! Sue a rapper and take his moneyz? Sounds like an excellent idea to me. That guy should sue.

He should have pressed charges.

Great work putting this together. Although, I don't think anyone's surprised anymore at the wholesale corruption of every level of our society...

That f*cking n*gg*r should die.

-1

i personally like the original track. also, STOP BREAKING THE LAW *SSH*LE

When pirates steal music for personal use, the RIAA calls it theft. When RIAA artists steal music and profit off of it, it's called "sampling" :(

As catchy as the tune is in both the original and the timberland versions, I do not stand for stealing!

I think it's time to go to War again!!!!! What say you brothers and sisters of YTMND!!! To arms!!!

Goddammit. Sh*t like that pisses me off.

THERE WILL BE REVENGE

Oh laaaame

this reminds me of when microsoft stole Apple's Mac OS and made Windows and got rich off that!

already on youtube since like 3 days ago sheesh

Wait...... wait....... Timbaland is world renowned?

Now why did this Hip Hop artist have to ruin a completely good song. I hope some day he'll get sued, and the whole world will know he's a phony.

n*gg* stole mah song...

It's very concientious of you to raise awareness of this artistic property theft, and well done on the amateur sync. I love YTMND's concerning such plagerism. I hope we can do our little bit in raising awareness of this talentless hack's musical skullduggery.

win win revolution

YTMND doesn't make money? what about the ads?

Why go for the money? Copyright violations from what I hear carry jail time as well. I'd love to see Timbaland and Smelly get V& after they tell their weeaboo friends on TRL BRB FBI. The MOD community does not forget, and does not forgive.

I can't understand what's the problem with *asking* before sampling, much less with giving proper credit. Does it hurt?

Muckraking.

Thats f*cking dick...

That's pretty disgusting. But hey, that's the music industry for you.

5'd for catchy music

Read about this the other day... What douchebags.

N*gg* stole my chiptune

That's NO good

Its a composition mix with no words... It has no legal value to be a copyrighted song... So they don't have to give credit to anyone.... Also, TOTAL PONY CARNAGE ftw.

I hope he sues them to sh*t.

who actually cares about rap and "hip hop" -3, plus you wrote "recieved" -1

It's a stupid song... don't care.

I always knew he was a thief!

And the guys is just going to sit bacl and take it? I would atleast attempt to sue, and at the very least make the *ssh*les look horrible through the media.

i hate hiphop and the riaa.. booo to them booo to them totally.. like... yeah

Extremely poor loop sync

C*nts

usually downvote these types of sites, but this had music worth listening to

Fight the power, Assembly , been there done that,

he might of not stolen but he might of paid under the table for this guy to write a song for him this happens alot in the music industry ,most of the time in the rap community where somone pays somone to write somthing for them but they will get no credit for it that is what might of happen here its called ghost writing look it up but this is still a good ytmnd cuz it exposes timbaland as not creative and should not be getting paid as much as he does for being a "Producer"

With a seemingly slam dunk case like this, attorneys should actually be contacting Tempest to help file a lawsuit against Timbaland. Hell, I'll do it myself. brb, going to lawschool. LOL

I knew there was a reason I hated Timbaland. I could f*cking smell it off him. I'm dead serious.

That's a f*ckin shame. 5'd for great justice or somesuch. YTMND remains the keeper and maintainer of all intellectual rights and any movements.

People are shameless. =

I DO COCAINE!!!!!

ZOMG! HAX!!!

Rather see this than a f*cking phone conversation on top 10.

Suomi Perkele! SAATANA!

i hate nelly retardo. allways did.

n*gg* stole my song!

n*gg*rs who can't write music, stealing from people who can, getting rich and f*cking dumb teen whores cause they have 3 escalades

smelly retardo has got a pretty bad reputation because of that n*gg*'s stolen music

um...who gives a f*ck about trashy n*gg*r music?

Don't care. He can sue and probably get a decent settlement.

4'd your information, it's called 'sampling,' and it's completely legal. lol.

I support the cause; however, I cannot support this YTMND. The Wikipedia article, forum posts, and YouTube video do a far better job of getting this message across.

what a f*cktard---^

BTW, it's not sampling. Not legal sampling, anyway. The "sample" is basically the entire song. Beyond that, even if by some twist of logic it does turn out to be legal, it still isn't ethical. He barely added anything to make it his "original ringtone", and the Nelly Furtado song isn't much better.

Rap as a music genre is all about sampling(AKA Stealing). Nothing New, you fail

this guy should take action against sh*tty rap people (not artist) remember when them doods took down Vannila Ice? he can do the same thing!! Good Luck

:(

what that *ssh*le. Rappers and original, hhahaahaha like they ever where. *ssh*les.

what a dick!

as a small-time producer that really pisses me off. I hope he DIES IN A FIRE

also, dont blame rappers, blame producers, there's a big difference folks

good site, hope 'timbaland' dies

for great justice!

F*cking talentless rappers.

Damn hip hop losers. They're all wastes of space.

HE'S A N*GG*R! HE'S A N*GG*R! THROW HIM OUT HE'S A N*GG*R!

nelly furtado should go to hell

Because this'll prolly get a considerable amount of exposure (in addition to that it's already gotten on digg), I'd advise you to do the following things: 1. Capitalize "finnish". 2. Find a picture of Timbaland. The one you have features Magoo prominently, and will confuse people. 3. Make it clear that the story isn't over after Timbaland releases the ringtone. 4. Sync it better. 5. Just polish it all-around.

I think Tempest should take a stand.

Damn, This really pisses me off!

they could easily sue them and win

That's business. Also, like the Site Creator said, don't say this is wrong just because you're all angry hip-hop haters, say it's wrong because he's stealing. Vanilla Ice stole from David Bowie and Queen, but if someone made a site about that, you wouldn't care. Probably because Vanilla Ice is white, I presume.

also, he managed to make it sound like sh*t. it should reference that too.

This isn't just borrowing - Vanilla Ice, IIRC, paid the bands he got for his samples(to make money.) Timbaland just literally f*cking RIPPED IT OFF and is making bazoodles of money off of it. It's not just immoral - it's f*cking illegal. He copied the guy's song.

You just can't trust black people.

It doesn't take us a minute to read5 lines of text. 1'd

^ Yeah, just like how Busta Rhymes and Missy Elliot "borrowed" Daft Punk's 'Technologic' Lyrics.....5

a bitch is bitch.

who cares?

Long boring and unfunny, and who cares anyway? you suck f*g.

YTMND should host a benefit for this guy if he decides to pursue legal action. How can we be defenders of the internet if we ignore the little guy.

He's a rapper. You can't expect any sort of originality with that. Still, it's quite a shame. Like the rest of the modern music industry.

Timblanad is a genius, but that's pretty low of him...

That bastard.

YTMNDs informative about righteousness. 5 for great justice.

Rap. RAP. R.A.P. Retards Attempting Poetry.

wow if thats real thats f*cked up, you should spam every public site including myspace hopefully popularity will hit to the right people

this is just wrong. thank you for informing the community.

Almost as funny when they started taking kids' songs.

Somebody post a link to all 4 songs

I have no idea what any of these terms mean...

I don't know who Timbaland is, but he can suck it.

Now I'm glad Aaliyah is dead...

As a guy with the monkier of Tempest, I am outraged, OUTRAGED I SAY!

man f*ck them white boys, give timberland a break. its hard livin on the streets and bein a straight up G. That crackerjack song sucked and timberland made it awsome. F*ck all yall

This isn't the first time a hip-hop artist has stolen a beat. It happens all the time.

poor tempest... :(

Good call. COULD SOMEONE LINK TO THE ORIGINAL SONG PLEASE? Thanks! -Dick
