   I own the Mass Effect soundtrack and I am pretty sure this is not a sample. Not even close.

   It’s good if it’s not Lil Wayne… Seriously how the hell do people listen to this?

   “I’m a douchebag to these pussy ass niggas
   Hammer in my draws but I nail yo bitch”

   Actual first two lines….

      Lil Wayne definitely has lost his touch, but he did have 2 amazing albums and a few amazing mixtapes before he turned into this weird and bad rapper.

            I did note the sarcasm, I also noted your lack of reading ability.

   Reminds me of the time Wiz Khalifa released that track that was literally just him rapping over Schala’s Theme.

   I know the beat that people are referring to, but this is only a very vague resemblance to it. Listen here: (Mass Effect 1 OST – Spectre Induction) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6PMJYoaGf8

   The riff features in various forms in a few songs from the OST and also plays during the intro here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=5tBFPy8sauw#t=58s

   Lil’ Wayne’s song doesn’t “unmistakeably” sample from Mass Effect.

   So this is similar to Coulton’s situation with Glee, except that Lil Wayne could probably get sued by EA (and they have a lot more money than Coulton).

      Sampling small sections is always legal, I think the minimum in most countries is something like 6 seconds but I think it was actually raised by most of them like apple etc etc to something closer to 12 seconds recently.

         Except I’m sure that the music plays throughout the “song”.

   ” Can we get some Jespyr Kyd next time?”

   This is not sampled from Mass Effect at all. Lil’ Wyane actually did sample a music piece by Jespyr Kyd from the Assassin’s Creed II soundtrack and it’s called “Leonardo’s Inventions”. It plays whenever Ezio is in Monteriggioni where the Auditore villa is located.

   Here it is from the ACII soundtrack: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V6zWf3ZPnE
