"I want to thank EVERYBODY who had our back on this! Your messages and e-mails helped prompt a very, very quick response from the people at Be Chosen Records.

BTW - Subject Detroit had attempted to contact Be Chosen several times before mentioning anything online.
They have now finally contacted us back, apologized and want to fix things ASAP. They also agreed to halt sales of the release out of respect until we agree on a solution.

I have never been against anyone sampling or copying other music as a tribute, to pay homage or because what they sampled was just too funky to resist. But...if it stinks of lack of creativity or just trying to cash-in then it bugs me. Too many of my favorite tracks and artists (Good Girls, Public Enemy, Ice Cube, Shades of Jae) are sample-based for me to be anti-sampling.

So to all my peoples and fam from all over the globe that took time out to write about this (even those who thought I was whining or groaning), THANK YOU. No matter how you felt about it, it just shows me there are still plenty of music lovers out there.

KeepDeep,
Bone"
