Borrowed? You mean stole. Rappers usually steal other (more talented) people’s work.

It’s true they usually don’t ask I don’t think Weezer would of cared but he definitely stole it.

dude its not called “stealing”
when an atist uses someone elses work
and makes up new lyrics for it, its called “sampling”
there work. just as if you remember a couple years back
kanye west put out a song called “Stronger”
that was sampled by Daft Punks – “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger”

Sigh you are so right. These farking retards have to be some of the dumbest shits in their respective community. I believe their use of the english language is a fair enough indication of their collective brain power.

I had the unfortunate luck of having to sit through Asher Roth when I saw Blink 182 last year. It was literally the FIRST TIME (I pride myself on my ability of avoiding shitty music ) I ever heard I Love College. I was like THIS IS WEEZER! I’m glad I’m not the only one who realized this. Best video ever.
