> Tan, for his part, apologized over the weekend, noting that his post was a reference to a Tupac Shakur lyric

Ah, so if it's a quote, it doesn't matter, because even though you've decided when to use them, they're not "your words"

Thanks, going to publish press releases with Cannibal Corpse lyrics going forward.

>>badreq+z8
can confirm this is taken almost word for word from "Hit 'em up", 2Pac's infamous and apparently (at least partially) sincere response to B.I.G.'s "Who shot ya?"

this song played an important part in the public exchange that concluded with both artists dead from fatal gunshot wounds.

the seemingly out of place "as a record label" portion of Tan's quote probably should have engendered some pause in the discerning reader.

>the seemingly out of place "as a record label" portion of Tan's quote probably should have engendered some pause in the discerning reader.

A discerning reader would discern that the word record was missing from Tran's allusion to Tupac's song.

Here's the full quote, in its entirety:

>Fuck Chan Peskin Preston Walton Melgar Ronen Safai Chan as a label and motherfucking crew

>And if you are down with Peskin Preston Walton Melgar Ronen Safai Chan as a crew fuck you too

>Die slow motherfuckers

Compare and contrast with Tupac's lyrics:

>Fuck Mobb Deep, fuck Biggie

>Fuck Bad Boy as a staff, record label and as a motherfuckin' crew

>And if you want to be down with Bad Bo, then fuck you too*

>Chino XL, fuck you too

>All you motherfuckers, fuck you too (take money, take money)

>All of y'all motherfuckers, fuck you, die slow, motherfucker

The only part that was left intact is "die slow".

Which is hardly a quote. More of a violent, incoherent ramble.
