Audi Commercial Ripping Off Em?

[Sla]

Does a new Audi ad use the backing track from Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” or is it just similar?

Eight Mile Style, the publisher of Eminem’s copyrights, thinks it is the actual song and is seeking an injunction against the automaker in Germany’s Hamburg Regional Court. Audi reps could not be reached for comment.

Lol, what you think? The beat truly reminds of Lose Yourself, but I'm not really sure they're gonna win this case. Props to Audi for being that courageous and outrageous.

It does sound really similar, it's obvious what they were going for.

[Scrubz]

Sounds similar... Fuck audi's. Over priced pieces of junk IMO.

[R.A.W.]

This sounds like it's made to sound like Lose Yourself sounds.

[dR3]

it's obvious what they were going for.

Exactly lmao. Witty boys.

[Tash8]

the structure is a complete rip off, just listen to the drums too. Obvious rip off, but who cares, its funny.

[richard]

yep, the whole structure and feel is completely ripped off. hopefully they dont get away with that

[FreeSpeech]

100% jacked from Lose Yourself, 0 question about that. It's especially pathetic considering Chrysler used the same thing months ago.

[AJS2050]

haha certainly copying.

I'm gunna copy that audio because it sounds pretty good.

[christalgurl]

The whole concept, music, everything is the same.

This is hilarious. I was thinking that it could almost MAYBE be unintentional until like 30 seconds in when I started laughing at the similarity...and then the drums came in and I started laughing even harder.

It's like the Chrysler commercial...but not good.

[jba1me]

It's really obvious they were going for lose yourself but changing it minuscule bit. They can't even deny it lol.

[EminemBase]

That's crazy how blatant a rip-off of the ad that is.
