You go using them and you can EASILY get sued HARD and it definitely aint' uncommon. Let a track with a sampled beat make it to the air (like most of us are aiming to do) or any other media outside of you own CD and you stand a high-ass chance of getting straight up sued hard man.

and later went on to say:


Phen, well that's a big diff. If no one recognizes it or it's some basic ass music, anyone could say they re-generated it (provided they'd need to show proof if they're legally cited) but vocals and shit man, they come down hard on.

And:

There's management and lawyers out there that do the damn thing the way they should and in your best interest and a lot of us operate illegally and don't evne realize it. Ignorance isn't a legal defense so please man, if you're gonna make music, look into the law. Instead of spending that $ on your equip, spend 30 bucks on an entertainment law book. Just my suggestion.
