@TimWestwood Gets @MicRighteous’ ‘Sack City’ Taken Off Of YouTube

I laughed ALL THE WAY OUT LOUD when I saw this. Spotted on Jump-Off TV UK:

Tim Westwood managed to get Mic Righteous’ “Sack City” diss track aimed at him taken down from YouTube due to copyright claims, as Mic Righteous used an audio snippet from one of Westwood’s radio shows, which is legal property owned by Tim Westwood and he obviously wasn’t about to give rights to a diss track aimed at him.

Not much else to explain here, the proof is in the pudding.
