craig 680 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 It's a sad day for EDM when DJ's have to rip off folk music to try to be fresh. @ avicii Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry 26,836 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 It's a sad day for EDM when DJ's have to rip off folk music to try to be fresh. @ avicii So many songs from many genres take influences from different genres... Music would be stale otherwise and this is definitely NOT the first time this has happened in dance music lol. I don't see what's wrong with doing that.

craig 680 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 A lot of people have heard WMU who don't know who it's by, because the singer isn't even given a feat. on the song. That goes double in America. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That goes double in America. What does that have to do with 'ripping off folk music'? I just think you don't like the song and are trying any way you can to discredit it, lol Aloe Blacc wrote the song and did the vocals so I'm pretty sure he would've had to agree to not being credited. Especially since he's performed the song all over the place... so it doesn't seem to bother him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially since he's performed the song all over the place... so it doesn't seem to bother him. It's still a power play by hotshot DJ over a lesser known folk singer. The same way Madonna and Beyonce are rumoured to extract writing credit for songs they're barely involved with. Aloe Blanc contributed a hell of a lot more to that song than many hotshot singers with sole credit for songs they didn't write and don't sing live. At least David Guetta gives Sia a feat.

Aloe Blanc contributed a hell of a lot more to that song than many hotshot singers with sole credit for songs they didn't write and don't even sing live. so he didnt agree with letting one of the most famous DJs produce that song?? im sure he got VERY rich on it thanks to avicii so why are you pressed?

Except Wake Me Up was his breakthrough WW hit. Levels was big too but didn't smash globally, so he was hardly a 'hotshot DJ'. And Aloe Blacc is not a folk singer lmao. Aloe Blacc still has a credit as a writer, just not as a featured artist. So your point about 'extracting writing credit' is rubbish too. Do you know what you're even arguing anymore? At first you were saying that Avicii ripped off folk music trying to sound fresh, and now you're getting at him for Aloe not being featured? Why are you so pressed by this song?
