Sample Declined!

I can't believe this shit. Here I am, driving, listen to some unknown/unpopular Stevie Wonder album. Driving…driving…driving…Bam! I bump into a killer piano driven joint.

Listen To The Original Joint


They Wont Go When I Go - Stevie Wonder


"No more lying friends/ Wanting tragic ends/ Though they do pretend/ They won't go when I go…", dope right? RIGHT!
All of a sudden my booty call seems mundane, as fine as this girl was, Stevie was hitting the right spot at this moment. So I hit a U-Turn and head straight home…Gotta bond with my studio.

An hour later the beat is done; dope as fuck.

Now, what do I rap about on the joint? Like I always do about this time, I read something. I pick up a Y Mag, and what do I see…my boy Wikid talking trash about me and Mr. Selwyn. Can't believe this shit! Home boy done lost his mind. Like a gift from the Gods, Eureka! I found a concept. So I commence to spit my mind on this joint, throwing shots at all back-stabbing, lie-producing so-called friends.
joint is done, I'm lovin' it. Play it to my peeps, they all love it…
"The Realest shit I ever Wrote" - Tupac

Now I'm ready to take the joint to radio. Industry rule number…something…"Clear The Sample First". I try do exactly that. Give my publisher a copy…let's do this.
Barely two working days have passed, and I receive a call…

"Your sample request was declined Amu, sorry dog."
What the fuck?! So quickly?
"Sorry dog, Gallo ain't trying to budge…"
What the fuck?! Try again!
"Ok Cool. But I don't promise anything."

Two days later, the same story.
What the fuck?!
Fuck it anyway. I know these cats from Gallo never even submitted my joint to Stevie's people, I'm used to being treated like a third-world loser anyway.
Now here we are; dope joint and no rights to use it. Thank God for the INTERNET, I can still share the music with the world.

Enjoy!
