On high school my group would have a "dangit Bobby" competition (which was fun for impersonation also we had an annoying kid named Bobby in our grade) and the winner (decided by the lunch lady) didn't have to buy their 25¢ coffee/cocoa that day
I sell the astral plane and astral plane axcessories
That boy ain't right.

Hank on Buddhism: "Yeah, yeah, I know, everything is one way, then it's the opposite."
Ah, so that's what happened to Hank during Instrumentality.
It's always been Wankershim
I will take this moment to post my short track: (Damn) It, Bobby:

I believe the sample I used is short enough to avoid litigation, and I haven't been sued yet 🤞🏾
do you have a non-spotify link? I like bandcamp personally, which is to say i dislike it the least. i need to get another ipod
If anything it's too short
I believe the sample I used is short enough to avoid litigation
Hate to break it to you, but you could use a fraction of a second from another copyrighted work and if the owner can prove it, they can start legal action. There is no "short enough" that makes an uncleared sample legal to use, just increasingly plausible deniability (e.g. I didn't sample that snare hit from you, I made it from scratch). If the sample is distinguishable enough, you can't really make that case.
If you're serious about making money from music, you're gonna want to start clearing your samples (or using royalty free ones) before it blows up in your face.
FWIW though, unless you make something that gets particularly popular though, first action will probably just be a takedown request rather than a lawsuit. If you happen to make a track with an uncleared sample that goes on to become reasonably popular though, that's when they'll come for a big sum of money.
TBH the song I posted is less than 2 minutes long and, if it were to blow up, I have no problem giving King Of The Hill their piece.
As far as clearing my samples goes: all samples I use are royalty free and/or I can provide receipts for my purchase of them. This particular song I used a clip of Hank only saying "Bobby" and "Damn it, Bobby". Everything else is 100% me. I have no fear of anything blowing up in my face, and the track has been up roughly a year with no flagging for unauthorized sample usage.
Fair play man, just highlighting shit that has burned some friends of mine.
If it ever looks like you're gonna get anything from tracks like that though, just clear it, half of the time you just get a free "yeah go for it"
Canonical ending to season 3
He escaped from Flatland!
This comic is not exactly representative of Rory Blank's work in content, but it is representative in tone.
No no no. Bobby is in his 20s and runs a resteraunt. And Hank......spent time in North Korea. For some reason.....
Saudi Arabia.
