#musicproducer #musicproduction #knxwledge
I think Knxwledge is 100% right. It’s his music that people are stealing and trying to make money off of without his permission. I would be mad too. I get his thought process too, it’s basically “I wont let you use my beats unless I fuck with you” and most producers with Knxwledge’s reputation think like this. Shit IM LIKE THAT AND IM A NOBODY. It doesn’t matter if the music he makes is sampled, he has the ability to get it cleared and the normal person doesn’t. Which makes it ok for him to sample whenever he wants, however he wants. One last thing, PLEASE DONT MONETIZE MUSIC THAT HAS A SAMPLE IN IT WITHOUT CLEARING IT. Put that shit on an unmonetized Soundcloud or YT channel or just keep it stashed.
There is another difference. He is able to use his samples creatively in ways that make the original song unrecognizable if he wants. Rappers probably just take his creations from there and spit some generic shit over top of it. If they are smart enough to come up with dope lyrics theyre probably smart enough not to monetize his beats either.
I agree he's not putting them up there to be sold it's his art
How do you clear a sample
@@prod.kidmizu there’s a couple ways to do it. You can just go directly to the rights holder and get permission. Normally that means paying them. Or you can use something like Tracklib that can clear samples for you
there is no fuckin way that knxwledge clears all his samples lol
young rappers feel entitled to these beats because they are the main protagonist in their head and feel as if their “work” is more important when without a producers beat their would be no rapper. rapper and producer symbiosis is necessary
Facts right here
Facts cause I never heard a beat on the radio and I never heard an acapella on the radio or in the club or at a wedding
You mean rappers parasitizing off of producers 95 times out of 100
Funny thing is the producer can exist on their own most of the time. Not a knock on the rapper but its just the way things are in reality.
@@sharifeady6834u jits obviously never listened to a jazz radio station
Really says a lot about a community of so called writers that nobody can understand a single word this guy said.
This is partly why i hate twitter lool. Its like nobody has a problem with piracy until their stuff gets stolen 🤣🤣
Yep twitter is not the real world. There's consequences for your actions in the real world twitter weirdos
I love knxwledge, these people are treating him like he's just a regular ass guy and not a GRAMMY nominated EXPERT producer and sampler with CLASSICS in his discography (yes lawd, momma, dont be afraid). These people will never be able to touch him, so they take it for free thinking they deserve it, discrediting the incredible work he does.
He is probably just a regular guy. But he is dope too. These people are just uneducated and wouldn’t have heard of him if it wasn’t for the big name rappers he produced for. Guess the price for ‘fame’ is you have to deal with idiots who don’t appreciate art the same way as you do.
I think it would be wrong even if he was a "regular ass guy"
@@randomchannel323 of course it is. But i think a lot of these kids dont know the rules to this shit.
treatin knx like a regular is just goofy behavior lmao
@@okokayy facts. Mans works 10 hours a day on his craft . Been doing that for DECADES. And arguably has not reached his peak. That next Nxworries record (to me atleast) will determine whether he is a true goat . He is up there with the best of them for now ,
I think a lot of people are dumb. It almost blows my mind the amount of backlash he got for that WHAT IS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND LMAO
True and also some people are just contrarian in spirit.
its called twitter sadly
I avoid sampling for one sole reason: i'm broke and can't afford to clear them lol.
I sample but I release them unmonetized or keep them stashed. I think it’s fun
If your broke you probably aren't famous. So you dont need to clear samples because nobody will care.
@@joeabiro2049 Okay but like I said, if you want to put it out and you can’t clear it, put it out on an unmonetized soundcloud or YT channel not spotify. The moment you monetize a beat with a sample in, you’re break copyright laws.
@@eddiecampos if people listened to your bullshit comments hiphop wouldn't even exist. Who cares about breaking copyright infringement laws lol
So upload your shit on bandcamp and don’t post on streaming services. Simple bruh
Making money off of someone else's work in a way that they can't make money off of it is clearly wrong.
China does it everyday
That Kno guy was on point..some people dont sell beats its like a track already
That Kno guy is the producer for Cunninlynguists. Very talented and accomplished producer in his own right.
It’s wild that people were replying to knx like he’s some random beat stars producer. Dude is a legend.
Love the video although I think you were wrong about the last comment you showed. I’ve seen knx talk about this in his ig stories and part of his problem does seem to be that the people rapping over his beats are just trash. It’s also one of his defenses when people call him a hypocrite, he basically just says he’s a god at remixing and sampling but the dudes rapping over his beats are not good, which is a fair argument.
Haven't been following his ig stories. Was just going off his series of tweets. 😵💫
@@Weaverbeats for sure, just trying to add more context as someone who follows knx pretty closely. I’d recommend following his ig, he gets saucy with people about stuff like this somewhat frequently. Knx definitely has massive hater energy and it’s pretty entertaining
Bro that makes sense cuz same old meek goes hard that introduced a lot of people to that sound
@@don2nd650 knx’s meek series is goated to me
I love when people steal my beats cause I’m the only one with stems makes court easier for my lawyer
The person who responded to the first comment is Kno, the super-underrated producer from the group CunninLynguists.
Definitely super underrated.
His work with sadistik is top-tier
lmfao "thats why we need music on the block chain"
you: No we dont. No we do not. lmao
This is the most depressing video about music production I have ever seen... The comments are just crazy.
It's a generation of entitlement. I bet none of those people actually have a hand in any sort of music creation other than typing "Type Beat" and then rapping on it with a blue yetti after cussing 12 people out on Twitter because they've been trying to record th same verse 425 times with autotune out of key and just set up enough to hide what you actually sound like just to sound like the other 78,923 auto tune subscription holders that are also googling MP3 youtube converter and then repeating the first steps all over
@@BeatsByMonotone You know what makes this eve more sad? Beatmakers themselves created this monster... People became so desperate with the promo tactics with tons of "free beats", type beats, packs of literally 100 beats for 9.99$ and this is the result.
@@D-One True take, I respect that as another reason for sure
God bless your patience . I just subbed bro , love your perspective it def aligns wit mine
What a golden channel for producers and musicians and all things about it. I agree 100% with knxwledge and loved that you expanded on it. Crazy how much hate knxwledge gets lol
Knxwledge is the man, NJ strong
Remind me of the $uicideBoys when they sample one of Deadmau5's track and mofos throw hissy fit the moment Joel ask to just clear the sample
That sandwich comment was the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard 😂😂
Brb getting my 10 friends to NOT steal sandwiches from this really good sandwich shop in my town.
@@Weaverbeats Look guys, I just stole a sandwich from this really good sandwich shop so I brought you all here to purchase them! *Unless…*
Meek Mill still holds the copyright to his freestyles regardless of who taped it. There are several forms of IP involved when you are taping live performances.
I wasn't 100% sure about how this would work, there's not a lot of information about this specific scenario online. The videographer would own the rights to the master recording but meek would still own the lyrics.
@@Weaverbeats yeah, unless Meek transferred the rights of his freestyle to the videographer you need the permission from both to sample the freestyle. Meek as the owner of the freestyle and the videographer as the owner of the recording.
Yup facts, I was looking for this comment. The second you rap anything, write anything, freestyle anything, you own the composition / writing rights
“Tried to buy a beat” from Knx 😂
lets just get rid of jaylib album as well cause dilla was mad about lord quas rapping over his beat but he got over and released the album.
2:20 (ish) is true. I don't know why people switched up like that. The underground and hiphop in general has been on such a downhill slope ever since people r making beats for the sake of making beats. No personality innem because they want to fit a "is this rappable? is this simple?" criteria n it's killin us!
i usually see it as the opposite as killing us. think about it lets say 1000 people start up producing, only 10 of them care about the passion that means 99% of the other producers are zero competition. And with how saturation production has become I love knowing that most of these producers won't ever stand out do to exactly what you said, their beats have no personality. The only people to buy generic beats are generic rappers. And neither generic rappers or producers really get anywhere. sure they can have a short 15 seconds of fame if they are lucky but if they aren't creative their success wont last.
Look at how many producers come and go because of the fact they are generic. So i feel its a positive thing that most of these producers are trash.
Holy shit, this was hilarious. Those hot takes were hot shits on the floor.
People have terrible reading comprehension and make assumptions without doing 2 seconds of googling. Knee jerk responses are also a big issue, I think everyone at one some point of their social media life has done that.
You opened my eyes showing what people are capable of...It's ridiculous.
Massive hater massively hatin'
Weaver Beats: “How do I punch someone through the internet?”
SumnSumnSumnHTK: 😳
This is ridiculous it’s almost as if the people in knxwledge comments have no idea what sampling is
Can’t believe your not at 25k yet
Life is sampling.
(I'm just commenting to help the algorithm push the video in front of eyeballs who've not subscribed so we can sample some hair clippers when W gets to 25K)
"These same n-words..." I don't why but the way you said it was kind of funny. Actually the way you read is kind of funny in general. No shots fired only jest!😂😂😂
I facepalmed so many times... Possibly even borrowed few facepalms from the upcoming year 😅
I do think it’s wrong for people to monitize off of his beats, but I feel like knxwledge is just mad if people rap over his beats IN GENERAL, which I find a bit hypocritical.
HIs beats sound finished already
If you heard some of the songs that used his beats you’d change your mind. These trash ass low effort rappers can’t do knxwledge’s beats justice. It’s embarrassing what some dudes consider rapping
@@user-nn7ct3hk7c I suppose you have a point there
Thanks for your insight, I love to hear peoples opinions on copyright infringement / plagiarism. It’s a huge conundrum.
It's the same with using VST cracks from teams like R2R. It's illegal but what really upsets the developers is if you make money from them and don't buy the license.
For real, some people will seriously use cracked plugins even after they start making good money off of it. Producers got their priorities all fucked up, they'll spend hundreds a week on weed but won't pay for their daw or plugins that they use to make money. It's whack and part of the reasons we still have to deal with bullshit like ilok.
I remember Kanye being caught with cracked R2R Serum 😂😂
@@esahm373 Yes, that was funny. The biggest problem I see with having so many cracks is people with 1000 plugins and yet don't know how to use any of them. The top production channels always say to learn your DAW first.
also the sandwhich shop can steal any recipe if its far away enough (town/ county). for example the oklahoma burger. how would a recipes be sold throughout the state enough to become a "regional" burger?!? then are all these chefs fruads?!?
would you say they are taking his beats without his "knowledge"
Underrated response.
most of KNX's style is a cloning of dilla
I learned something during this whole debacle.. people are Idiots! 😂😂
Knxwledge es un genio sin dudas.
Sampling is cool, and I've made some cool stuff from sampling and chopping them up, but that's why I make sure its something royalty free from like steven slate or something. At this point its really risky. I've been dcma'd on twitch for making beats for a 5 second loop, and for even my own melodies that I've made. I don't see a point in it anymore so I just play guitar on stream now. also 9:45 I can concur, I used to work with a few rappers and they don't even know how to upload a new profile pic to any of their social medias or do anything really for themselves, not saying everyone but a huge majority, especially when I worked at a studio, 99.99% of clients didn't know a damn thing about music/or the business behind it. Just youtube, and "type beat" and youtube to mp3.
this is why im scared to " " blow up " ". For years and years i've been just ripping R&B samples off RUclips and flipping them and uploadin em. I probably won't ever GAF about copyright, but for the artists who're making music with a goal to blow up i can see how much of an issue that'd be come, especially on Twitch and YT which is DMCA-landia.
Lots of small fishes, and only a few artists. When is started off as a producer I pretty much had the same struggle. Too many with little to no knowledge and an amateuresque grind. These are the only people who are willing to work with you in the beginning and you have to work really hard cause their potential will also limit the quality of your outcome and therefore the quality of your portfolio. I simply raised my prices that’s a good way to keep half Ambitioned and knowledgeless people off.
They coming back to steal more sandwiches 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
These takes tho🤦
This is my issue with it: *Knx makes his beats with samples he doesnt pay for* he sells the majority on bandcamp
I love knx, love sample beats, but in the eyes of the law it is no different than taking someone elses beat, rapping on it and selling it. I think that says more about strict copyright laws but it is an interesting subiect.
Also, huge thing here. Knx just lashed out at Meek Mill for getting his Meek remix series taken off streaming services. So he is being hypocritical to a degree but most of the tweets youre showing arent even hitting the right reasons.
I believe knx clear all his samples, he even mention it every now and then on twitch. It's partly the reason why every stream starts with him checking email
@@juliomonk I find that really hard to believe with the amount of music he releases. No disrespect to you lol, I'd like to hear your source on that if you remember it.
Taking someone else’s beat and spitting a low effort rap on it isn’t the same as taking pieces of a song and making it completely different. Knxwledge would be a hypocrite if he had a problem with people sampling his work, but they aren’t. They’re straight up just taking his beats, saying some bullshit on it and reuploading it with their name in the title. Stealing beats isn’t sampling
Based ON sampling, not "based off of" sampling. You've never seen a movie that begins with "based off of a true story," right? This "based off of" bullshit has to stop
This is more of a problem that plats that use content ID needs address, since this seems to be a common occurrence
I lost some braincells looking at some of these tweets.
I have had My music stolen and posted on other websites without My permission but what can I do? Not very much.
they will never understand....
If Knxwledge has made money from using samples and acapellas that aren’t cleared then yes he is being a hypocrite. With that said, the ambiguous nature of content ID is what’s screwing with people’s money (along with not properly understanding copyright).
Exactly, and btw he has made money. It literally is the same exact thing. It doesn't matter the fact whether "You did something creative with it". He's made a career solely by sampling, those musicians could come out and make the exact same statement he made, it's not like these things haven't happened. Chaka Khan - Kanye is just one of MANY.
@@knugen16 I agree but thats not exactly the same thing. In his case his stolen work he actually cant make money off it anymore because they put a copyright on his work.
He was mad as hell Meek Mill removed some beats with freestyles on them lmao he is a clown. Supertalented, but horrible personality.
Yeah I don't understand why people are acting like since he is a top industry producer he isn't making an ass out of himself. He has profited off of samples and Meek Mill did own (well his label) the writing of that freestyle. I'm guessing this guy does not know the nuances of copy write. He has probably sold music with uncleared samples on Bandcamp too. His music getting flagged is really just a content ID problem, which there is a sever lack of understanding about in the producer community.
Actually you are right and wrong.... content id is the issue as you stated but sampling and stealing someone elses work as your own are two different things. These guys aren't acknowledging KNX as the producer AND if KNX gets caught for sampling without clearing something he CAN be sued...... They aren't manipulating anything ..... and tryng to profit while there are similarities it is not the same. If someone sampled a Knx beat and redid it I dont think there would be an issues and he wouldnt care..... KNX isnt taking the instrumental of for the love of you and saying he did it
It's not a "legal gray area"... it's a matter of whether or not the copyright hold actually sues or makes effort to strike/takedown the sampled material. Amen brake is clearly infringement but the original copyright holder never sued.
it is a grey area, depending on what you do to the material it can be deemed different enough to not infringe the copyright
@@1998Cebola law is super clear on this. You are arguing evidence not law.
@@1998Cebola Your wrong and Jason is correct. If you manipulate the sample enough you can get away with it in court because it can't be proven that it is the same audio, but it is still infringement. The law is clear, using other people's work against their wishes or without permission is copyright infringement. The gray area is only in court where it must be proven with evidence for there to be consequences. People also pretend that the Amen Brake is grey area, but again it's not, it's just never going to court because of practical reasons (too ubiquitous). When a sample is public domain, you can use it all you want, there are no copyright protections (this usually happens for very old recordings or public broadcast type things). The producer community really needs to stop these "legal gray area" arguments, it's oversimplified when this stuff is not that complicated.
I guess Im good by keeping myself off of twitter
great breakdown also i just got all my "friends" with similar account names (coincidence) to subscribe to your channels too so i hope your head gets buzzed
I never put full beats out.
8:32 this is the funniest part
"yeah, they're coming right back to steal more sandwiches" hahah
I want everyone in these comments criticizing Knxwledge to listen to some of the songs these ‘’rappers’’ are making with his beats. It’s just uninspiring, low effort rhyming by some teenager who sounds like they have social anxiety. There’s a reason he wasn’t mad at STEEZ and Joey rapping over his shit without permission, bc they killed it. I wouldn’t want these wannabe artists spitting trash over my work either.
Also, jacking beats isn’t sampling. If someone sampled a Knxwledge song or used a sample he used and he complained THEN you can call him a hypocrite. Taking someone else’s beat and talking over it isn’t sampling, sampling is taking a part of a song and making it something different. Anyone who can’t understand are doomed to fail.
You can’t call your self a rapper if you are not solidified in that field amongst other rappers.
Your either super talented & have a great work ethic or your working your way up.
same thing with producing….
none the less - those are clearly a bunch of people who are either trying to get good or just doing it solely for the love of music lol.
People always want to soeak
On something but make themselves sound stupid
Weaver i remixed your song while watching this video, uploaded my remix, and someone stole it already brooo 😭😭😭😂
BROOOOOO YESSSSSSSS
Yooo we almost got weaver to 25k subs think there is a good chance we might see massive shaver here soon.
235 to go 😲
@@Weaverbeats the growth has been crazy to watch fr
this is what happens when you grew up without the belt
These peeps need the strap
" Every time a rapper comes to record
in my facility, *90% of the time* they're
using a Beat from RUclips that was
made by an unknown Producer, unpaid.
I think that any Producer who puts beats

*consider to only puts 'snippets'* of the
work on the internet. Most aspiring
Rappers *don't like to 'buy/purchase'* the
Beats."
If it blows up they can sue so it's free fishing
Terrible business plan
"🤔@@weartesters2539 (terrible business plan)..,
from my experience in running a commercial

millions of beats out there, yet *the demand*

All The Best 🙏
I always wondered what made people so angry towards knx, maybe it's cause he doesn't give out step by step instructions on how to do what he does?
That sounds like a bigger problem for non exclusive beat lease buyers if the first buyer of a beat leaae for $25 is going to copyright strike all others thst lease a beat after then its like getting ex lusive beat for $25
3:31 So on this point here, he did sell those on Bandcamp for profit as well as RUclips. It doesn't make his beats getting stolen O.K. but its a big reason in why some producers on Twitter like to kick his back in. Though a lot of people seem to have it out for him. There was a time before all this where he called out Mach-Hommy for using a beat of his without paying and he got made fun of. I don't know what the deal with that is.
Didn't know about the bandcamp. I still think its not a 1:1 comparison though because people using his shit are getting his own music flagged.
People are dumb and completely disconnected from reality
Lol I posted a remix of the Evangeline fly me to the moon just for it to get copyright claimed for a leaked carti song. I hate people like this
the judge judy of beats
Good video
Got em
I get his point but the solution to me is just to get the copyrights to the music before he post it. If you post anything on RUclips and don’t have the legal rights to it, it can get ripped off. I know that may be more complicated then it sound but people are not going to stop doing what they are doing, so just being realistic, he has to change things. If he can’t get the copyright for some reason then he probably should keep it to himself until he gets all that sorted out. We can play hypothetical and say people shouldn’t take his work but that’s not realistic which is why he addressed it as such. So he should change his approach other wise he will continue to get his music taken.
I don’t think that’s the argument here
The issue really is rappers running off with his shit before he can lay claim to it in the first place
For instance you can’t make a sculpture and walk away from it for a few to go get a sticker to put your name on it and have some one come grab it throw some paint on it and then when you’re like fuck it I’ll do it again and post it have some one come claim that the original was there’s and they gotta take the new one away
He just wants the rights to what he originally did só going forward he gets his credit first Im not sure this would be the issue it is had he had the initial rights to it or didn’t get flagged because he posted his shit second
Damn those comments were painful
I wonder how many of those people even know what Content ID is?
The price of ‘fame’ for an artist is you have to deal with leeches who will try to use your hard work for their personal gain. There’s two sides to that coin. Because it probably allows him to do this full-time. I’m pretty confident he is a true artist and will remain to bless us with his autonomous creations. I wouldn’t mind it though if he would stop producing for big names and was able to just release personal work. That would be a strong move in my opinion, if he was able to do that. But I don’t know what his bucketlist looks like. Either way these rappers need to check themselves before they wreck themselves.
Lmao i love this video
This video had me dying 🤣🤣🤣
I like Cookin Soul's approach to sampling.
All these people seem to love calling themselves ''artists'', if your an artist make your own beats.
Did Celine dion make her own beats ? Did Whitney Houston know how to use an mpc
Just here catching up on some NEW😂😂
Dammit was supposed to say NEWS😢
What's with the random K-Trab bar at 7:21? Lol did I miss something?
Intellectual property is a hard one. Everybody wants to make money off theirs, but not have to pay for others. I bought my copy of FL, when I could, but used a trial, or cracked, version for years. I used to record lyrics to beats of other producers I never met, but when I wanted to have original ones I learned to make my own and then met other producers who thought I would rep their beats well. With the amount of beats for cheap lease and with how easy it is to use a couple of programs in any computer, or phone, and make an 'original' beat, rappers really have no excuse to do this. But, that being said, it is stealing; but so is sampling and not paying for it. I'm not one of those people that thinks there is no artistry to sampling, but if you are only paying for what samples are recognizable, and not everything, then you are doing the bare minimum and only partially stealing. The problem that nobody (at least out of your video) is addressing is actually the streaming services and their shitty attribution systems. Some unreachable person, or AI, should not be in charge of attributing who owns what and it certainly shouldn't be something that you can't challenge and change if you can prove you created something. There is no reason that if somebody has posted a song that they are selling that Knowledge produced that that site couldn't just take most of the money they generate and pay it to Knowledge. But, I agree, that once he is aware that somebody has made something with his beats that he should have the right to request it be taken down. Especially if he doesn't like it.
Another thing that is stupid: A producer saying rappers are dumb (not great for business I don't imagine lol) that's like a child care worker saying they hate kids
If me saying that most rappers are stupid offends someone then they probably are stupid. Your comparison to rappers being children is dead on though 😂🤣
@@Weaverbeats Ok just checking. You are an idiot. Good luck with 25k subscribers! 😄😂🤣
There should be some method to have a hidden & encrypted metadata tag embedded into the original audio file that has the authors credentials. This metadata should then not be able to be edited/deleted unless the correct encryption key is used and no matter what re-formatting etc is done to the file this info is permanent. Then all streaming platforms allow the uploader to enter this info, tying the file to them as the owner/creator and copyright holder.
Not gonna lie, this happens on some RUclips to mp3 downloaders now, only thing is you can’t do anything when someone just records it
You can actually embed your tag into the audio files spectral analysis, look it up on RUclips
@@ISHI6I Cool idea, only problem seems to be that the tag is actually an audio file when using this method. I think ISRC codes is what I've been looking for.
@@gamefantasticcuz Yeah If someone is for example recording directly into Audacity then there is no way to protect against this.
I personally don't like sampling. I know how to but it just puts me in a box.
oh boy, this whole thread is a joy, music producers can be amazingly dumb sometimes
u really thought all those twitter replies were rappers? cmon
Yeah I didn't like this when I seen this on twitter a few days ago. There's so much uninformed and miss education here, it's sad. So many artists with no understanding, and random people who have no idea what he's saying adding nothing to the convo.
9:23 whats going on today guys massive troll here
Beatographer
Son literally said without my permission right. Like if he wants to work with you / let you use his shit then youre good but its his right to say whether or not he wants ppl on his shit
I use a public hot tub where I work out and there’s this guy who will poop in the hot tub, even fling his feces on the wall. It’s impossible to stop, cause he would literally have to be caught in the act by two people at the same time; but he’s too slick to get caught. I know what I’m getting myself into when I use a public hot tub and it bothers me when other people complain about the guy, while sitting in the hot tub. Any time you put a piece of your work “out there”, that’s you kissing it goodbye, and the reality is you have zero control.
Reality, lol true tho. Why state the obvious when that’s the reality of life in general? People can just take your shit if they have the means to (valuables, cheeks, life, etc). And people do, every damn day. It’s still not right, and people are justified in having their complaints. Why complain or try to do anything about anything? People have their kids kidnapped. Should they just go, “that’s the risk of having a kid and bringing them into the world”? They’d be shitty parents, bro.
@@Point_n_Shoot wouldn’t you agree that there’s a difference between complaining about an issue as opposed to doing something about it? As a producer, I’d love for something to be done about art stealing
People really read what they want... the point is the fact someone isn't just rapping on it and up loading it, it's the fact they are uploading it, profiting off it without paying royalties for one and then the fact they are claiming as their song that his song then gets flagged as copy write fraud... not only they are making money off of his beat without paying royalties they are having his beat flagged as copy write infringement.
Sure someone tried to say something like this every 100 comments, but the brain dead ants be all over it 🤦♂
The point people are making about him using samples... still missing the point... do the songs he samples get flagged as copy write fraud?
People speed read and miss out the text that gives a message context
In alm honesty T pain shoukd copyright strike 99% of male rappers last 15 years
He's now complaining about that he was winning from.
What is really dumb is that all these people COULD have added him to the song credits when uploading, gave him half the stream money, and we (probably) wouldn't be having this conversation because content ID (probably) wouldn't flag his stream if he was credited as a contributer. They had to of uploaded that shit with no credit given whatsoever. Clown behavior 🤡
massive knxwledge
- knx profits off of uncleared sample with his music on bandcamp. doesnt flag or demonetize original sample creators own content
- other ppl try to profit from sampling knx, but these ppl actually damage knx new songs
the hipocrisy is in the details. knx is also 'damaging' the ppl he is sampling because he is not paying them what they were due, per law.
the big thing about his criticism is that people are doing the damage in a much more direct and impactful way unto knx, via unfairly causing his brand new creations to be halted before they can even be heard on platforms. the knx remix that got taken down with copyright claim was a meek freestyle remix, which he got permission from the videographer. that, i think, is fair to say that meek fucked up in copyrighting it simply because why? what does meek make out of silencing an old freestyle remix from making money to the remixer? maybe he got a chunk of change for the sue but i doubt it
There is another side to this yall not seeing with the people, the artist that arent stealing and jacking this mans hard work and some of those artist have credited him for the work. i have went out my way to use his beats but i have rapped over his cover but i literally put this man in the title and credited him for his work not taking away from the work but just being simply inspired from the sound. We all know you cant get the sound from some where else. I dont want any money and neither have i made any off of the song or any of the music ive put out. Its easy for you and even maybe him to say something about these "entitled' kids but at the end of the day they are inspired by this man and his craft. imagine looking up to a artist wanted to do what they do one day and you tell them they are untalented and theives when some of them dont even have intentions of stealing from you or even know how serious it is to rap over shit that isnt their shit. Knwledge is wrong but some of these fans arent out to get him or want to steal from him.
lol welp welcome to the music industry
Didn't he take freestyles Meek Mill did and then make tapes he sold afterwards?
how do you say his name? it's hard to pronounce. is it kinecksowledge? i can't find this in my English book, i don't think the x goes there but i'm not a Prxfessxr 😂
