making money

[themucka]

hey Mucka an God, I have a quick question. When I use samples from records I feel like it's dangerous to sell the beat.. When you guys sell beats with samples do you effect them untill unrecognizable or pay for the rights to use the sample. If most hiphop producer's who sell beats for g's to radio/tv artists an do not clear samples I think it would be a huge risk that could collapse on the producer at any time. And I can't remember hearing about hiphop producers being sued over samples. There are websites on the net that show who used what sample.. can't the owners of these records sue? Although, if they are paying for the rights to use the sample how much are they paying, generally?

GOOD ? FOR TEGO ALBUM WE HAD 3 SAMPLES CLEAR.. ONE FROM THE BROTHER JOHNSONS.. ONE FROM DIANA ROSS WITH TEMPATIONS. AND IMPRESSIONS.. THE OTHER FROM JIMMY CLIFF..

ITS COMMON KNOWLEDGE THE ARTIST IN THE INDUSTRY PAYI FOR CLEARING THE SAMPLE.. ITS REALLY THE RECORD COMPANY THAT HANDLE IT AND DMG BUT THE ARTIST PAYS FOR IT AT THE END OF THE DAY.. SOMETIMES YOU WILL SEE SOME SLICK CONTRACT USUALLY FROM ROOKIES OR SLICK VETS PUTTING IT ON ROOKIES THAT THE PRODUCER HAS 2 CLEAR THE SAMPLE. I DONT FUK WIT THAT EITHER SHOULD U.. NOW WHAT HAPPEN WITH THE DIANA ROSS SONG WAS STEVIE WONDER OWN THE PUBLISHING ON THAT. SO FOR SOME REASON THE COMPANY DIDNT WANNA GO ON THE MISSION 2 CLEAR IT AND WE WERE ASKED 2 REMAKE THE BEAT... WHICH WE DID AND THEY SHOT A VIDEO 2 IT WHICH I WILL PUT ON MY SC SITE WITHIN 2 WEEKS..

IT COMES DOWN 2 HAVE A GOOD REPRESENTATION AT THE END WHEN U SIGN THE DOTTED LINE 2 GET THAT CHECK OR CASH..

we did the song "my life" the one that has him talking about his life situation from begining to end mentions his situation wit snoop and how it came about... the hook went" this is my life, my story, my pain, my blood etc.."

we did the track that has my man singing on the hook.. " the rat song" that only had 2 verses on it hes waiting for tego to hit the third..

we also did one i think is crazy but he sleeping on it.. it has him on the hook its for the girls.. "has him on the hook like.. " i thought i gave you that gangsta love but you wanna stay up in the club im thru boo...

theres anotha one we sent him thats crzy that he picked.. that he didnt record down here but he took it when my man was at baseline..

jus tell him mucka and mingo say what up.. and were waiting for his ass 2 get back down here..

and tell screw "bear bear"

no doubt...I haven't seen him around since he spent the week here...Last I heard he was at the Def Jam retreat, dancing up on stage for LA Reid lol...That was about a month ago though

The track he's got with snoop is dope to me..I forget it's name, but the shit is crack...We ended up doin two tracks, Polow produced em. Part Time Girl feat. Bobby Valentino, and This Is The Life...Got some reggae chick on the hook

yeah i liked the polo joimts.. tho when he was here i did edits on that reggae song "this is the life" and they put vibes cartel on the hook and 3rd verse..

 

[djswivel]

yeah, im pretty sure they decided against the Vybz version...they were goin over that and making the decision in the studio here with cypha....unless things changed im pretty sure theyre going with the chick

honestly, the chick sounded WAY hotter than vybz...I didn't think Vybz went with the track...The girl killed that shit...
