It’s always sad when an artist lifts part of someone else’s track without acknowledging them, but when an “artist” steals all of his music (ALL OF IT) wholesale from other artists, gets signed with it to a label, and then tours on it, it’s downright disgusting. How utter asshole Laromlab managed to get away with passing off the great tracks of YM Rockerz for so long is appalling.
His former label, Mushpot Records, has pulled “his” record from sales and he’s been outed by CMJ, but it comes as quite a shock that I haven’t seen any information about this on too many other blogs, especially one of our favorites, Missingtoof, who posted some of his ripped off tracks just a few months ago and are normally so on top of stuff.
Laromlab has issued a deluded apology claiming that it takes guts to own up to doing something wrong, but the guy didn’t own up to anything. He was caught red handed and then lied again to a collaborator, claiming that the one track he used with Kentucky Prophet was actually his when it wasn’t.
Mushpot records has posted a list of the artists who ACTUALLY made the music. Might I recommend a little Crazy Q to start your weekend off right?
