Houston legend Mike Jones plans to re-record his hit singles, similar to Taylor Swift.
Earlier last month, he disapproved of NLE Choppa’s “Still Tippin” freestyle, alleging NLE didn’t ask permission to use his track.
“I don’t care about getting respect, especially if the respect wasn’t shown 4 months ago prior to releasing the music without getting the business clear!” he wrote on Instagram. “I told y’all #Welcome2TheMusicBusiness #StayTuned For Receipts & I wish a N*GGA Would.”
Choppa then took to X (Twitter) to accuse Jones and his team of copyrighting his freestyle and calling the rapper “lame.”
“Ion know if it’s Mike Jones or his team, but on everything y’all dead wrong for trying to copyright a song, I got cleared,” he wrote. “That’s some hating sh*t, especially for a young ni*a like me that’s just tryna please his fans. Ion feel that. I lost dumb respect, but it’s cool, fasho!”
He said, “This man lame for that. I’m partnered with a major label! They not even going to release a song if it ain’t CLEARED. If that was the case, you would’ve sued instead of copyrighting! Anybody can make a COPYRIGHT CLAIM! That don’t mean the record ain’t cleared. Broke activities.”
Last week, the H-Town native continued the online saga by sharing his plan to follow Taylor Swift’s strategy and re-record all his hit singles, beginning with “Still Tippin’.”
“Since everybody wanna copy and remake my old sh*t w/o doing the proper business, I’m a do like Taylor Swift and just RE-RECORD ALL my SINGLES‼️Since these NEW artists think they can do it, SO CAN I, I use to be BIG on Creating Original work & not going back to it to remake it cuz I can always create new, but I see now year-round, all these new artists is steady coming out using it, so I might as well Remake & remix my own sh*t.”
“That way, it’s no clearance issues, right? didn’t know y’all wanted ‘STILL TIPPIN’ to be remade every year or every other year; hell that’s all y’all had to say, LMAO,” he added. “I will make it my job to release a remake/sample, what ever y’all wanna call it, with new artists that on the rise! just don’t say sh*t when I’m doing it‼️Coming soon: Artist: Mike Jones, Song Title: ‘Still Tippin Still.’ Dropping 2024 & a new remix gone drop every year after that!”
Jones clarified that, although he doesn’t own 100% of his music, he does possess a percentage. He stated that in 17 years, he will own 100% of all his music.
