Williams stated that, “Because Plaintiffs do not hold a valid copyright registration and because Plaintiffs have not established either legal or beneficial ownership of the exclusive right to prepare derivative works for Hustlin’, Plaintiffs’ motion for summary judgment is denied and this case is dismissed.” Copyright Office, a copyright lawsuit cannot be filed in federal court. In April 2016, the Florida court ruled that Rick Ross’ copyright registrations for the song had several errors making them invalid. Can people stop rapping about molly now? I’m tired of hearing that heffa’s name.Los Angeles – Last week Miami rapper Rick Ross appealed a 2016 ruling that dismissed his copyright lawsuit about alleged similarities between his song “Hustlin” and Los Angeles duo LMFAO’s song “Party Rock Anthem.” LMFAO is made up of Redfoo (Stefan Gordy) the youngest son of Motown founder Berry Gordy, and Sky Blu (Skyler Gordy) who is Stefan’s nephew. Your nipples point down at your feet and no one is here for that. You really need to start wearing shirts more often. GET YOUR LIFE, RICK ROSS!!! Also, none of this lends you street cred. And then at the end of that day, take off your bra and lay your burdens down next to your face chain and re-assess your lifespace.Īrt is subjective but artists can also be held accountable for their work when they perpetuate a culture that is damaging to us all. And then tell people that it’s really not okay. ![]() I need to put on your GOOD bra, step up to someone’s podium and apologize for being an irresponsible misogynistic prick. Just so people can treat our bodies with respect. This rape culture we live in tries to cut women down to size at any chance, and all our lives we’ve had to fight like Miss Sophia. They’ll think that behavior is normal and justifable. Those lyrics will connect with someone. Kids (and some adults) who look up to Rick Ross are gonna listen to him slipping someone a molly and “she don’t even know it” and some will think it’s ok. Why do you think music is used for therapy? It’s incredibly powerful. It’s deeper than that. Music has the ability to sink in our minds and connect with people’s thoughts and emotions in a way nothing else can. Music is NOT just music. For those who will say “it’s just music” then you don’t know how the human brain works. O_O I want to tell them to get the entire hell out along with you. It’s not just music. I blame you first for uttering this garbage but I also blame the fools who gave it the thumbs up for public consumption.Īnd someone somewhere is gonna defend that line, telling us “chill, it’s just music.” Because, you know, date rape is cool to rap about. Chill on that?” That in itself is problematic. And then the label allowed it to come out? maybe you shouldn’t say that.” You can your crew felt it was perfectly reasonable to boast about date raping a woman. That’s not cool! The fact that you wrote those lyrics down, spit them unto the mic, approved them to go on this song and then released them means at no point did anyone tell you “hey. ALL the people who heard this song before it got released thought it was fine? Seriously. If we all need proof that we live in a society that perpetuates violence against women, you don’t have to look far. ![]() You’re talmbout slipping a roofie into a woman’s drink, taking her home and having your way with her and not having her remember it. You might not be the first to say some insensitive ass shit about women through rap or song (I surely won’t go into the history of misogyny in music because that post would be an encyclopedia) but that doesn’t mean we should let this one slide. Bitch it’s true you ain’t nothing but a slut to me… “Bitch I’ma kill you like a murder weapon I will conceal you…” I actually rapped those words out loud before, bobbing my head to the dope beat. “Bitch I’ma kill you, you don’t wanna fuck with me. And I feel ULTRA guilty because I used to love that CD. Ok, maybe in the mid-90s and early 2000s, when the uncle of misogynistic rap, Eminem dedicated a whole album (Marshall Mathers LP) to his hate of women. How in the hell did you think uttering those words FOR RECORD was okay? When did date rape become the topic for bragging rights, Rozay? NEVER, that’s when. Some of it is scattered in the corner, and some of it might be lost under your giant mammaries. I am to tell you that you need gather your life because it is clearly not all together. I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain’t even know it.” “Put molly all in her champagne, she ain’t even know it. You came out with a song with the following lyrics: Rick Ross, the rapper with moobs has earned this sternly-worded letter for being a disrespectful misogynistic jackass through his music.
