News: Lil' Fame Not A Beat Jacker After All?



Following up the report that I had put up a day or so ago about a young Philly producer accusing Lil' Fame of jackin one of his beats for the new M.O.P. album it seems we have yet another twist in the story, but this time it's far more positive.

Apparently the track's producer Rahaman Kilpatrick got scrubbed out of his just credits in the album's liner notes because M.O.P.'s manager Laz-E-Laze was rushing to turn them in and spaced his name. Also, that supposed quote from Fame in the first report for all intents and purposes is false and the real Fame gave Kilpatrick a call and squared things up....

This swift resolution comes as a relief to me, an admitted big time M.O.P. fan, although I do gotta say the placement of this comes at a mighty convienent time......I'll go head' and give Fame the benefit of the doubt and believe that he did this cause' that's just how he rolls and not because a grip of blogs were running the story and he had to do some damage control. Either way, I'm happy Kilpatrick might get a lil' somethin' outta the whole thing. He deserves it.

Here's one for you: Al Shux is credited with producing the Jay-Z track, Empire State of Mind, when in fact, IAMISEE (Live from Planet B-Boy),shopped the exact same beat to French producers over a year ago. IAIS has dated emails to France which contain the track. The beats are identical right down to the breaks, the only exception is that IAIS's beat is a slower tempo. IAIS called the beat (sampled by The Moments) Two-Way Street.
