Lord Finesse has filled suit Mac Miller for using an unauthorized beat on his 2010 mixtape K.I.D.S. The original track is for Lord Finesse’s 1995 single “Hip 2 Da Game”. Last night on Twitter, Mac Miller had the following to say:

1. I made that record and video as nothing more than an 18 year old kid who wanted to rhyme and pay homage, no other intentions.
2. Finesse and I spoke on the phone for an hour after he heard the record and cleared the air. We even planned to work on music together.
3. All I wanted to do is shed light on a generation that inspired me.
4. When I heard there was a problem, I reached out to him to try and solve it. No response.
5. Finesse never cleared the Oscar Peterson sample on the original record. I did nothing wrong. We spoke on the phone had a good conversation, he was cool with the record.

It’s all love tho. I ain’t even mad at dude. He still a legend. Lord Finesse, thank you for what u did for hip hop. Thank you for bringing my favorite rapper into the game.

What are your thoughts on the situation? Is Lord Finesse doing the right thing?
