Original just a dr Dre 2001 leak called “like me” I believe dj vlad added a fairly uknown jay acapella onto for a mixtape of his and claimed it was a real collab

then game added a verse onto it and released it as a dre and hov collab on the g-unit radio tape (think thats where it first dropped at least). It’s 2 layers of fake.

Wtf you need to find this

that guy max b used to rap with who was basically a jay z impersonator

NOE? Lol

yes lol

1:59

That B/Cudi/Em one classic

IDK still does this lmao

He tried to sample a James Blake song and say it was a feature but James called him out

Remember when Jhene did it with Ye

The Max B talk reminded me of another one...

In 2008, Wale was making a buzz with his single Nike Boots. The song was so hot that it got an official remix from the hottest rapper at the time - Lil Wayne.

Max B made a unofficial "remix" of the official remix, taking off Wale and replacing him with himself and Freekey Zeekey. He left the Lil Wayne vocals. Alot going on here lol

This was undeniably hip hop

copyright laws (dj drama raid) killed mixtapes along with streaming

Maaan lmaooo this is a great one. She did it to Gucci on the same project.

Gucci vocals from the above song with Wale. On the streaming release, she had Gucci cleared as a sample

idc what it was, that s*** is official now

s*** was sad when wayne started rapping over youtube remakes of beats

He really did hop on pre existing songs lmao

He had permission though i think

lmao. when artists stopped releasing CDSingles with instrumental, acapella etc i knew the end of beat jacking mixtapes was near

also limewire megamixes with 2pac and eazy e

James always calling niggas out for s*** lmao

this s***s hard tho, even if it’s fake

i’m impressed that the jay acapella fits so well

damn i never heard the Game version of Who Do You Love

nice ngl

can we also post mixtape tracks that got bigger than the original song whose beat got jacked

Make a seperate thread, thatd be cool.

Gotta start with Sky is the Limit

This one is a great story. Drake did this verse for Nicki Minaj. The open verse song somehow ended up in Tyga's hands who added a verse. When Nicki found out, she was kinda mad but agreed to use the Tyga verse as well - just told Tyga not to release/leak it. Tyga's frequent collaborator Mally Mall added a chorus to the song as well.

Then, some random The KiD Heat got the file with Drake, Tyga (who already added himself without permission) and Mally Mall, added his own verse and leaked it.

This started a "beef" between Nicki and Tyga that would last for a few years.

The song was eventually released with only the beat and Drake verse from the leaked version - along with verses from Nicki Minaj and Lil Wayne - as Truffle Butter.
