Sample of the Week (M.O.P. - Cold as Ice)

I'm currently in a temporary cheap ass apartment in one of the many offshoot cities of Seattle until the economy gets its damn act together or I get off my ass and settle for a job that isn't part of my career path. So I've got more snow than downtown, but it's still COLD AS ICE out here. I think we're at about 8 inches. Also in case you missed the memo, SEATTLE PEOPLE CAN NOT DRIVE IN THE SNOW! Say what you want, but we handle the rain pretty well because that's all it does out here anyway. Snow is another matter. Anyway, I figured I'd get around to a sample this week and this is the first song that came to mind besides that shovelin snow shit with weezy and currency but damn if I'm about to work hard and find if there was any samples on that beat.

MOP Sues John Cena over Illegal Sample

Tsk tsk. Word is that MOP is suing John Cena for 150 Grand because a "relatively unknown seattle producer" (aka Jake One) sampled their song "Ante Up" on John Cena's track. Jake is not named in the suit, but I know he did some work for John Cena's album. I'm not about to look up the credits for a John Cena album neither. Because honestly, you don't really care. lol. Big ups to the hustlas of the rain for posting the story. I'm a rain drop H-U-S-T-L-E HustleR! lol. Get it? John Cena x murs remix ahhh fuckit.

Ante up:


Maybe they can settle this one in the ring. I'm not so sure that's to John Cena's advantage either, you see those mafuckas? They're huge.
