Dear Mr. Girl Talk
I didn’t pay for your new album, and when you had me select a reason explaining why I didn’t pay for it, I chose “I don’t value music made from sampling.”
This is not actually true — I most definitely value music made from sampling — but I’m honestly a bit put off by the way you’ve made a career out of exploiting uncleared samples of extremely recognizable songs, and I’m not eager to support that. If you somehow cleared the samples, I probably would’ve dropped a couple dollars at the least. Either way, I can’t really say that I’m a big fan, though you’ve done a few tracks that I’ve enjoyed.
