Bye Bye BPI(Explicit)

Bye Bye BPI - Dan Bull[00:00:00]

Lyricist:Dan Bull[00:00:00]

Composer:Benny Aves[00:00:01]

This is addressed to Geoff Taylor of the BPI[00:00:01]

Thanks to STB for the beat[00:00:05]

You're the BPI's VIP and you've[00:00:06]

Picked a fight with TPB[00:00:07]

But P2P's too deep to preclude don't you see[00:00:08]

You can't stop it[00:00:11]

You won't stop it[00:00:12]

You won't block it[00:00:13]

So find another way to lie[00:00:14]

And line your own pocket[00:00:15]

Most of us have composed a lot no profit[00:00:16]

99 of us will never have a pop hit[00:00:18]

It's not rocket science so don't knock it[00:00:21]

And don't pretend like you're being philanthropic[00:00:24]

Talent isn't rare it doesn't need protection[00:00:26]

Any claim to the contrary is pure condescension[00:00:29]

A con deception the wrong perception[00:00:31]

Propagated by a proper dong[00:00:34]

It's evident[00:00:35]

Go to any pub[00:00:36]

In any town[00:00:37]

In any cunty[00:00:38]

And count the musicians[00:00:39]

Doing it without need[00:00:40]

For some rudes in suits[00:00:42]

Sh*tting on our scene[00:00:45]

And sticking in the boot[00:00:46]

So you can stop telling me stuff[00:00:47]

Put your money where your mouth is[00:00:48]

And take a salary cut[00:00:50]

'Cause I'll happily put your[00:00:51]

Cash into the hat of a busker[00:00:53]

The BPI doesn't give a f**k for[00:00:55]

Look I've studied your[00:01:17]

Justifications of what you seem to think[00:01:18]

There couldn't be a clearer case of circular reasoning[00:01:20]

You judge talent by how well they're selling[00:01:22]

But they're only selling from[00:01:25]

How well you're selling them[00:01:26]

You think adele'd have reached where she was[00:01:28]

Without the media machine feeding the buzz[00:01:30]

You say artist should get[00:01:33]

Paid for the work they do[00:01:34]

But you only care about the[00:01:35]

Ones that bring in revenue[00:01:36]

If the bottom line is the sign of a good artist[00:01:38]

The why the need to manipulate the market[00:01:40]

So Pro laissez faire[00:01:43]

You recommend protectionism[00:01:44]

Where's your decision[00:01:45]

On which method it is or isn't[00:01:46]

The only way your in today's position[00:01:48]

Is through decades of ripping of plagiarism[00:01:50]

But now the next generation's risen[00:01:53]

You're complaining[00:01:55]

Hey we need to change the system[00:01:56]

These crazy kids and their disco dancing[00:01:58]

It isn't legitimate[00:02:00]

If we haven't cleared the sampling[00:02:01]

But surely sampling is always a bad thing[00:02:03]

Not just when the bank accounts need balancing[00:02:06]

And if MC's are paid related to their talent[00:02:08]

How come I make a fraction of what[00:02:11]

T Pain is selling[00:02:12]

If I re made a ballad with sheen[00:02:13]

Aimed at amorous teenagers[00:02:15]

Daniel'd be famous now but it isn't gonna happen[00:02:16]

So I'll stick to rapping with integrity[00:02:19]

Something your industry is lacking[00:02:22]

Ask any MC or composer[00:02:49]

Piracy[00:02:50]

Yes Please it's the only method I know to my VSTs[00:02:51]

Nothing is proportionate the prices are extortionate[00:02:55]

To lawfully produce only a portion can afford the stuff[00:02:57]

I'm sure that cutting off connections and dealing bans[00:02:59]

Would leave the music scene desolate completely bland[00:03:02]

Innovation comes from underground[00:03:04]

Where there ain't much money round[00:03:06]

So we resort to lawlessness to make the funny sounds[00:03:07]

And then of course all that goes around comes around[00:03:10]

The majors wander round and plunder from the underground[00:03:12]

See you need us as much as we need you[00:03:15]

And that might not be much depending on your view[00:03:17]

I was once on the tube once and overheard a conversation[00:03:20]

Between two rec execs planning exploitation[00:03:22]

A singer had passed on[00:03:25]

So they tacked a crap track onto the back catalogue[00:03:26]

And laughed a lot[00:03:29]

I thought I can't believe it this is a mix up[00:03:30]

I'm literally listening to paint a vulgar picture[00:03:32]

That the BPI can leave a site on the net censored[00:03:35]

Is an incredibly terrible threat to the new tech sector[00:03:38]

Now there's a industry that really needs fighting for[00:03:40]

They're the future you're just a wounded dinosaur[00:03:43]

Tchaikovsky didn't need the BPI[00:04:21]

Stravinsky didn't need the BPI[00:04:23]

Verdi didn't need the BPI[00:04:26]

Vivaldi didn't need the BPI[00:04:28]

Rossini didn't need the BPI[00:04:31]

Debussy didn't need the BPI[00:04:33]

Puccini didn't need the BPI[00:04:36]

So why do we need the BPI[00:04:39]

I don't need the BPI[00:04:42]

Homeless busker doesn't need the BPI[00:04:45]

British music doesn't need the BPI[00:04:48]

The future doesn't need the BPI[00:04:51]

You don't need the BPI[00:04:54]

We don't need the BPI[00:04:56]

They don't need the BPI[00:04:58]

The BPI needs the BPI[00:05:01]

Bye bye BPI[00:05:04]

Bye bye BPI[00:05:07]

Bye bye BPI[00:05:11]
