Logic is Sick of Having to Clear Samples: "I’m Tired of Replaying Shit"
Does Logic make some good points?
The usually mild-mannered Logic had to get some points off of his chest.
HEAR: There's A Lot of Rapping on this New Eminem & Logic Song "Homicide"
On Tuesday, May 7th, the rapper went to Twitter to give his views about clearing samples. In short...it doesn't seem like he's a fan. In a tweet he wrote " Fuck people taking all a producers money for not doing shit and fuck the companies that say no just cuz."

Here is the tweet:
Naturally, the rapper got some pushback from those in the music community:
\u201cRe: the Logic sample clearance tweet; yes, I understand that the sample clearing process can be frustrating at times, and very tricky depending on the copyright holder. But if you're releasing an album through legal means, you have to clear things legitimately.\u201d— iamHBY (@iamHBY) 1557244293
\u201ci need to know who's denying logic sample clearances so i can rightly celebrate them as heroes.\u201d— frank bullitt (@frank bullitt) 1557233902
\u201cclear your fucking samples logic\u201d— Alonso (@Alonso) 1557234396
After a couple of hours, Logic expounded on his ideas around sampling. One of the points he mentions is the fact that if he samples A Tribe Called Quest's "Can I Kick It?" Lou Reed would get 100 percent of the publishing, compared to Tribe who would get nothing.
Does Logic make some good points?
