Gorillaz – Stylo (Featuring Bobby Womack & Mos Def)

03.24.2010



More trouble for EMI, this time with Gorillaz big hit Stylo from their new album "Plastic Beach". Eddy Grant and his lawyers claim there are "substantive similarities" between Stylo and his 1983 song Time Warp. See more HERE. Whosampled.com seems to think it's a rip. Check it out HERE.

Eddy Grant says "Damon Albarn knows in his heart of hearts – it's unfortunate that we cant get into people's hearts – he knows that this is a song that he's loved, in his club days… I don't know the guy… but he knows this is a song he loves." It's up to the respective lawyers now. The 62-year-old Grant is so pissed that he decided to re-release Time Warp digitally online for your downloading pleasure. Regardless, Gorillaz "Plastic Beach" album has been lauded by critics.
