sasha 2,956 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Well, kinda understand why people might have a hard time believing the statement, the scenario is so idiotic. I personally can see them, whoever's idea it was, searching "angry man preaching" and picking it purely based of auditory feel. And even if YG is credited for the lyrics&the beat and has nothing to do with this sample, the fact that he approved it for his personal project presumably without asking who it was and what he was saying is idiotic. Well, maybe he indeed trusted BH to both clear the copyright's issue & to check if it's appropriate content. So it's either BH is covering for Yoongi or it was BH who didn't do their job. If they do have a procedure and it got past them what a fuck-up though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's a PR-statement, not "the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth". And even that doesn't absolve YG from partial responsibility because he is still one of the idiots in this chain of idiots who allowed it to come out. All the more so cause it's his name slapped on it. The lately raised level of "dumb&careless" from BTS is upsetting, you gotta admit it. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's literally a statement from BH's Public Relations people? And anyway what "I" want to believe is that YG would be prudent enough to ask whose words they put in his song, why and what's the translation but alas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's an official statement from the company however everything they're saying is assumed to be the "truth" unless a person themselves do not want to believe it. "You" want to believe that Yoongi is different, tho Bighit and Yoongi is saying that was not the case here. But the statement do say they will do better. I don't understand. The statement(that is not liable to disclose the whole truth) is out so I should stop pondering, however briefly, over any scenario but presented? And "different" means "has any interest in his own work"? However you twist it it's negligence on YG's part too imo.

Instead some people are creating all these reasons within their own heads as to why it should be false. Why not take the statement at face value? Why not just believe it? Because "you" don't want to, not because it's not true. Are you trying to hypnotize me? because "you" don't want to believe it~ BH isn't some unbiased third party. You can take their statement at face value or you can treat it as an added bit of info that too can be a subject to critical examination. The statement is perfectly plausible, I never said it should be false. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
