OK we all remember when Vanilla Ice actually came on TV and refused to acknowledge the sampling of David Bowie and Queen's 'Under Pressure' in his song 'Ice Ice Baby'. And Milli Vanili and the Grammies! And the love quadrangle within Fleetwood Mac. Also COLDPLAY was criticized for stealing music from all over the place! It was rumoured they would go to local clubs and listen to indie music and then go right to the studio and copy it and distribute it as their own.

What is your favorite controversy in the music world? List uncredited songwriting, samples used without permission, or even love triangles or murders.

I'll start us off with the Under Pressure Sampling in Ice Ice Baby.

Vanilla Ice Interview Denies Under Pressure Rip off on MTV 90s - YouTube

Ahahaha, you know if you listen to the two he's actually right! They put in an extra note/beat, but come on, that was a rip off.
