I love your reaction videos .... you are very sincere and you know how to see the beauty of music and you don't fit into a single style .... you explore other trends, especially from the time when we were not born but maybe we have been in our emotional genetics. You are open and humble to accept suggestions ... you have a sensitivity for music. Particularly I am a super music lover so much that when I was little I listened to some songs from when my father was little, when listening to them for the first time I felt like an inexplicable nostalgia, since I did not live that time, I listened to them in my mother's womb? or when I was a baby, maybe .... and I think that has happened to many of us !!

Well in truth it's something the record label should have cleared via their legal department. He may not have been aware that he needed permission, as he was pretty young when he wrote this.

[@darkwolf1202]

@@penname5766 he got blamed for their mistake. today it would be "ok".

[@penname5766]

Pedro Valente Yes, he did wrongly get the blame, but today it wouldn't be ok. The record company would still require permission to sample an existing song. It's just that today record companies have learned that it's not worth the expensive lawsuits. It's also much more commonplace, so everyone is familiar with the procedure.

[@JamesInDigital]

A lot of people say "he should have asked permission." People gotta remember a lot these dudes were kids and sampling often was without permission, but the songs weren't hits. It really comes down to poor management and shitty music execs not looking out for their artists.

[@docsavage8640]

There was never a time when music execs looked out for the artists

[@JamesInDigital]

You can say the vast majority don't. I wouldn't argue, because that's true. To say none ever simply isn't true.

[@7thlittleleopard7]

@@docsavage8640 At the very least they had a vested interest in covering their own asses, but we gotta also remember that this was when a light was started to be shone on sampling being 'an issue' that needed 'weeding out'. People tended not to 'borrow' others' tunes before (not in a deliberate nod, anyway). Sucks what happened, tho.

Vanilla Ice did actually have some great lines in this song "Turn off the lights and I'll glow"..."Anything less than the best is a felony" and "If my rhyme was a drug I'd sell it by the gram"... It was a great song even though he sampled Queen's song for the music. And he was smart...saved his money and is doing great.

[@jeknechtphotography7106]

Apparently Ice bought the rights to Under Pressure since it was cheaper than a court battle with both Queen and David Bowie but Ice was still ordered to give them writing credits on the song which I believe may still entitle them to some royalties. He also later admitted that his interview where he defended Ice Ice Baby was different was complete BS
