"Sampling or Stealing? The Legal Beat of Music Copyright" Did you know that using a few seconds of another artist's song in your track could land you in legal hot water? In a landmark case, hip-hop artist Biz Markie faced the music for sampling Gilbert O'Sullivan's "Alone Again (Naturally)" without permission. The judge's verdict? "Thou shalt not steal" – even in the music industry. This case set a precedent: sampling isn't just borrowing, it's taking two copyrights – the sound recording AND the composition. No matter how brief or simple the sample, artists must obtain permission or risk facing the consequences. As your legal team, we're here to help you navigate the complex world of music copyright. Whether you're a budding artist or an established label, don't let legal issues silence your creativity. Let's chat about how to keep your music legally sound and your career on track.
