And taking music from TV ads.
MADONNA GETS LYRICAL HELP FROM GAP AD
Quote:
Madonna’s publicist confirms that two lines in the chorus of “Sky Fits Heaven,” a song on Madonna’s new “Ray of Light” album, are taken from a 1993 TV ad for the Gap starring poet Max Blagg.
Blagg’s poem included the lines, “Sky fits heaven so fly it, Child fits mother so hold your baby tight.” Madonna’s song includes both lines, changing the first to “Sky fits heaven so ride it.”
Representatives for Madonna say Blagg agreed to a deal where he was paid for the use of the lyrics, but gets no credit on the track. Blagg was unavailable for comment.

Like... Beyonce at least pays to be ON the track, not to REMOVE the original artists...
I always laughed along with the "Beyonce steals" mess cause I thought it was ironic considering MJ and Madonna were even worse than her. But some of ya'll were serious?
