Can I name my original track with (Ft. Marvin Gaye)?

Post by samdam1 » Sat Aug 17, 2013 12:43 pm

Hey guys so I have the original track I made which I want to release for free and probably get good promotion with it.

It will be 'ArtistsName' - 'ID' (Ft. Marvin Gaye)

Would you guys say this is acceptable? I use about 4 lines worth of his vocal in the track, repeated in the verses. I dont really want to end up calling it a remix or edit of the Marvin Gaye track...

legally probably not, but let's face it, the chances of your song becoming even remotely ubiquitous enough to gain the attention that would cause you any problems are extremely low.

Legally, you're already not in the clear by using the sample, so I say why not. Jay-Z did it.
