***speaking of which, the last time i saw sir mix a
lot's "baby got back" on a new compilation, i checked
the credit and there is *still* no mention of the fact
that it steals the beat from "technicolor". i know
atkins knows about this, so why don't these sorts of
things get rectified in the credits in the future? not
detroit related, but the usage of bob james' "take me
to the mardi gras" (via run dmc's "peter Piper") isn't
credited on missy's "work it". the beatnuts have been
mentioning that jennifer lopez' "jenny from the block"
samples them ("what it is"? i can't remember the exact
title), but, though there's 3 sample credits on the
single (including using bdp's "south bronx"), there's
no mention of the beatnuts. i think one of the other
credits is probably for the song that beat nuts also
sampled that they're crying foul about. which would be
a lack of originality, but hardly stealing from the
'nuts, and par for the course with the way all of the
jlo tracks are produced (using set it off, using i've
got five on it, etc, etc). i hope the 'nuts credited
the sample they used that jlo also did, otherwise
they're just calling attention to themselves and likely
to get themselves in trouble. andrew
