Ah poor chap. I guess he forgot he didn't even write or produce the guitar hook. Australian rock/pop band INXS created it for their song 'Need You Tonight'.

Love the way he refers to *his* song as an anthem. Wow, talk about taking the credit for something you never created! He nicked/borrowed the main hook of the song from someone else. Still, I'm sure INXS have enjoyed all the extra royalties as a result of Green using part of their song.

Oh get off your high horse. Every rapper samples something or other and he does'nt actually hate it if you read the article properly. The world can do without your negativity.

The rest of us figured this all out 2 years ago the very first time we heard the song. The original song was very famous, everybody should've recognized it, and they did mention the sample like half the time they played it on the radio.

It IS Professor Green's song, because he wrote the raps.

Sampling is a fundamental part of the genre. Most rap songs sample other songs. You are coming across as the silly one here.

Hey, did you know grass is green?
