Jay-Z: Noel Gallagher Rips Off The Beatles












Rapper slams Oasis frontman after Glastonbury row

Jay-Z has hit back at Noel Gallagher, saying he copies other artists with his music.

The rapper was responding to the Oasis frontman claiming rap didn't belong at Glastonbury.

'He made a blanket statement,' Jay-Z tells Observer Music Monthly. 'He hasn't heard every hip-hop record and I haven't heard every rock record, so I can't make a blanket statement and say rock doesn't belong somewhere.

‘I can say that Noel Gallagher rips off The Beatles. I can say that because I’ve heard his music.’

The 38-year-old hip-hop star adds like he'd like to meet Noel, 41, for a chat about music.

‘I’d like to sit him down, play him some really great poetic music, some incredible, well-produced hip-hop,' he says.

‘Things have to change. Just because something has been a certain way doesn't make it right. To me, music is music.’

Wow....like that hasn't been said before. Noel doesn't hide the fact that he rips off other people's music. He knows he does and he doesn't have a problem with it. His songs are still amazing nonetheless.

And I'm sorry but I think that there are only a couple songs that actually sound anything like The Beatles. I never thought that Oasis sounded like them.

Jay-Z should just sod off.

And you know what....Oasis doesn't just rip off the Beatles. Oasis rips off everyone, including themselves. They manage to make the song their own and that's all that matters.

Name one artist who doesn't rip off someone else's tunes. Everyone does it so just shut your face Jay-Z.

Oasis is a bad cover band, and Noel Gallagher thinks he has thr right to rip on Phil Collins....whatever moron, you suck and Phil is awesome. Why don't you find a clue to how write your own music instead of ripping off the Beatles.They even try to look like the Beatles.....LOL
