Did Logic STEAL Eminem's Lyrics? (EXPOSED) |

in 1999, Eminem claims that he went on the Sway and Tech show and spit the very first rhymes that he EVER wrote on a freestyle thats now famously known as "Greg". This freestyle is an underground one that pretty rare to come up on. And in 2012, Logic used one of the bars that says:
"No more said, case closed, end of discusion, we blowing up like spontaneous human combustion..." in his song called "Under Pressure"
However, after the internet picked it up, Logic, in a verified annotation of Genius, claimed the lines were definitely inspired by Eminem. Who do you think did it BETTER?

It’s literally just paying homage. I’ve heard many others do it such as Jay Z and Drake

[@HorrorMoviesNGuns]

Tbf, although Jay Z is one of the best rappers to do it imo (Top 5 to be exact), I would say he used so many of Biggie’s lyrics that I can’t even consider it paying homage anymore. If he did so for probably his first 2 or 3 albums after Biggie passed then I can respect that as I would say it’s paying tribute. But he does it way too much when he’s already an excellent lyricist.

[@energizr2816]

@@HorrorMoviesNGuns still he's one of them goats. I also kind of didn't like the line in Pound Cake where he was like cake cake cake cake, and then other lines were rhyming cake with cake. Overall the verse is pretty good but those lines r lazy

[@HorrorMoviesNGuns]

@@energizr2816 Oh most definitely, I even said he’s still Top 5 for me regardless, but even with lyrics such as that, he does get heavily lazy & don’t even try. And it’s not because he can’t rap anymore because he proved he still got it with 4:44, it’s just something else.

[@mr.randomguy2286]

Logic always shows loves to anyone that inspires him. So when he uses lyrics off of other rappers lines. He just makes it into his own by saying it differently in a better flow. So it’s not “stealing” if he’s paying homage to the original creator

[@_seanchilders_]

“All artists steal from other artists” This isn’t that big of a deal, just let people be influenced & stop giving them shit

[@JonahH513]

Logic is my favorite rapper. I think on raw talent he is one of the more skilled rappers out there and I think he has potential to be one of the greatest alive. Bro gets too much hate, especially considering that song (and album- under pressure) was truly remarkable

[@maxthebored2614]

I personally don’t really care, it’s one bar and they are both good lines

Literally ever modern rap song has been inspired by past song/ artist. It's just how people influence people

[@lifematch]

That’s not stealing lyrics, thats respecting the OG crafts.

[@lancegodbey6450]

Look if you're in the music business, eventually someone will say some of you're words. Rock bands take riffs and technique all the time, except they embrace it and actually make an effort to better the community as a whole.

[@chrismotionless4148]

He probably didn't mean to steel EMs lyrics he probably just did it to pay homage to Em

[@thejadog1741]

The thing is someone like Logic knows he can't get away with just straight up stealing lyrics without people noticing so I just view it as he's paying homage, because Eminem has done that exact thing himself

[@rachelvargas5856]

I'm pretty sure Em wouldn't care and would be proud that Logic did that

[@blank7137]

Logic is a fanboy rapper. He doesn't reallt steal but he gets inspiration from many different artists and it bleeds through his albums and songs. Not just artists but even movie directors like Quentin Tarantino like Bobby Tarantino. He's literally known for this.

You can take any artist that’s blown up within the last 5 years, take any of those songs, pick any line and you could find someone else who’s said that exact same thing, recycled garbage. Logic been the goat since the early 2010s

I believe it was Hemmingway that said "Good artists create, great artists steal." Its all about how you use it, and put your own spin on it. Its unbelievably hard to say anything that hasnt been said before, but i think Logic's use was fine. At worst, its just a reference to one of his favorite rappers.

[@newlevelgaming7129]

The thing is when an artist fucks with another artist heavily, they expect everyone else to know that artists music as much as they do.. Logic wasn't stealing he just assumed people would've already known what that bar was from.

It’s not even homage. It’s a sentence. A common saying. There’s not a lot of ways to even fit the topic of that without saying it exactly like that. Just try rhyming it but with a different sentence. Besides very small one word changes it’s not really possible. People are stretching it.

[@NIKEL31]

I hate when people claim logic stole lyrics he didn’t and second it’s not who did it better they did it better with different flows for example logic had a beat and his cadence was different so how he said the lyric came out differently but at the same time it remains equally as cool then when em did spit the lyrics it was also equally as cool Edit: those people who say stole are also the same people who don’t know what paying homage is
