Every one talks a lot aboy the issue but Dully Sykes said he did not see anything strange. When Interviewed by East Africa Radio, artist and producer Dully said it is common sampling and hit men are doing. Although he forgot that although people are really very repeating old songs, these artists are the first clear copyright issues or request permission to pay the owners of these functions.
What Dully did, who is the producer of the song is taking the melody and rhythm of the beat of a song by Cecile and make the same version of the song. If it happens Cecile find out, then it is likely that Dully will be accused, let us first understand the concept of sampling.
In music, sampling is the act of taking a piece or sample, the sound / song was recorded before and use it as rhythm, beat or sound to another track.
Often "samples" includes part of a song which later formed a beat of another song.
Use of samples have been legal and career problems as well. Wahasisi of this style of 1940s to 1960 years in the U.S., were sometimes do not inform or ask permission for the real owners of these works before making songs or beat sampes containing these.
In the 1970s, when hip hop was just played at street festivals there was no necessity of addressing intellectual property issues in order to sample the song will be used in these ceremonies. But after they began recording these works of rap years of 1980s and later into the mainstream of music in America there was a need to pay first to get permission to legally use the samples something that was difficult for all but djs, producers and Wrappers were have succeeded.
Consequently a large number of artists they found themselves into problems by using samples without giving credits, ask permission or pay.
Sample without permission breaks two copyright law. The first is 'the sound Recording copyright' (owned by the record company) and the song itself intellectual property owned by the author himself of a song or writing company.
So if you want to sample legally you must ask permission from the owner of the song. Rightful owner to the rules of our company or record label. So it must get permission from both sides.
Fee or charge for using samples vary widely. Fees will depend on how much sample you want to use.
Often using a sample fee rises $ 250 to $ 10,000 on a major label.
If the court find out that breach of those laws has been done deliberately fines can reach $ 100,000.
Rightful owner of the work can be also permitted to prevent the distribution of these functions or burn.
Dully stands where?
In the above description and when Cecile has heard this song so suitable Dully (who is producer) should be prepared for payments because in this case he can not win. Also this is not the Dully case alone, suitable and will involved. He can not win because he has spent behind the song's melody making Cecile beat it without permission from the song.
we make mistakes when we say 'it is common sampling' without understanding that if you want to sample must be given permission to buy and also give credits.
Just give thanks to God that we are in a country that is hard to hear the songs of our great artists, but as we said above is that most of Tanzania producers of today would have been in trouble.
