Coldplay refuses B.o.B a 'Lost' sample

Featured Replies

I read that too, and it makes me half-sad they said no.

But the song needed to be much much much more original.

 

yeah, B.o.B. is good and everything, and i'm okay with people sampling other tracks as long as they put a new spin on the original song. but the whole song meaning is pretty much a ripoff of the original version, and especially of jay-z's verse in lost+

 

"well, this is the world that we live in, one minute you the hero, the next you the villain"

 

kinda reminds me... "with the same sword they knight you, they gon' good-night you" (btw that line is genius lol)

Oh really??? Damn , that makes me love BOB more now that he is a fan of COldplay,

 

I like BOB , 'Nothing on yOU' is an awesome rap song,

 

BTW how can you not know it when its currently #1 on Billboard?

From the EW article:

 

"B.o.B (real name: Bobby Ray Simmons) cites Coldplay as a key influence. ''Two years ago, I was going through a bumpy period in my career. [Coldplay's 2005 song] 'Square One' came on, and it was like the light at the end of the tunnel.''

abit suprised at the bashing you guys are giving him. i really like him, he can rap and sing, so he's something a little different. his song called airplanes is going to be big aswell. i can understand the refusal though, it wouldve been good to have on his debut album though

BoB really needs to learn some inventiveness from the sounds of it

Typo..meant "I really like the song"

 

Oh, btw LOVE the picture in your signature :D It's soooo beautiful!

 

thanks - dreamt_too_late made it for me:D

The p90x workout schedule exercise is incredibly powerful. It is simple to set yourself for failure with all the this exercise program, as enthusiasm generally begins to fail following a week. That’s where the P90X worksheet will come in.

Rescue Beauty Lounge nail care tips are created with resin and high molecular polymers to improve flexibility, durability, and high shine.

For now, we’ll just have to wait for B.o.B to get big enough that Coldplay wants to sample him.

What do you think of the track?

Well, I don't know if you've noticed, but most people seem to think it's shit :P

I don't! hehehe...I am generally a fan of B.o.B's other music and T.I as well :D

Over here in Los Angeles, it's been getting a lot of airplay already on top of his other track. I like it!

i click on the link but it sends me to the song in safari... how do i actually download this on a mac?

This.

 

WTF? Maybe they could sue if BoB put it on an album but he asked permission and got a no, so he released it free. How on earth can he get sued for that, I'm guessing he probably got permission to send it out on the internet for free

Against popular opinion, I quite like it :shrug:

^ How could I forget Lost+, featuring both Mr. Gwyneth Paltrow and Mr. Beyonce Knowles?

 

That made me laugh out loud, seriously:lol:

^^ This is better than Lost+. They should give it to the poor guy if he's really a huge fan.

I just keep wondering if B.o.B can make any hits without any "feat." :shifty:

I don't agree with the first sentence.

But I agree with the second one. He seems like a nice fellow this BoB :\

^ Well the song Lost! (and Lost?) is fantastic, but Lost+ does nothing for me, Jay-Z that is. At least this one is different.
