Code artist Brysco is bemoaning the fact that his new release titled 10th Floor, a song which heavily samples iconic American producer and composer David Axelrod’s beat titled The Edge, and the hook of Dr.
Brysco has not stated whether or not he received clearance from Dr. Dre or Capitol Records, under which the now-deceased Axelrod’s track was released, but asserted on a recent Instagram Live session, that the treatment of his song appears to be an act of sabotage by those who do not wish him well.
“A bay style ting mi si some people deh pon wid man career yuh know dawg. Man drop 10th Floor and mi song block bredda. Di people dem a restrict mi song dem dawg,” Brysco said.
“When mi release 10th Floor, di same day di song guh numba two trending. Di song get 300 and odd views inna one day… buss ova TikTok – everybaddy a do challenge. Mi gaw a mi bed by di next mawnin mi wake up mi get a text from YouTube she, yow mi song get strike. How mi song get strike? YouTube tell mi seh yow if mi believe seh dis is a mistake, mi fi appeal. Mi appeal fi di song; dem put back di song paa YouTube, but guess wha? Dem shadow-ban di song,” he said.
Axelrod’s The Edge, which Brysco sampled, was released in 1967 on the composer’s A Bit More of Me album.
