you got it all wrong fellllow

Beat of ''Mata sithanna ba'' is based on the song ''preethi preethi'' - A song in a old movie called ''ashokamaala''
It has got nothing to do with busta rhymes ''make it clap''.. The Two tracks are comletely different from each other..

Anyways.. No one can question Iraj's Remakes... Because He has OBTAINED LEGAL PERMISSION FROM THIER RESPECTIVE OWNERS TO MODIFY THE ORIGINAL SOUND TRACKS..

not only ''mata sithanna ba'' , he also obtained legal permission to remake the track ''Mata aloke genedevi'' From Thissa Nagodawithana and SARIGAMA CORPERATION - India ..


Talking about using other ppls music ,Then I think you should blame Dr. Amaradeva too. bcuz he has used a very popular western song's melody in the song ''NIM HIM SEWWA ''..and many more senior artists did the same thing. (And without proper permission of course...)
I can show many more examples if you like...

BTW . everything changes. so is music. I don't see anything bad about using older songs melodies to create new tracks...As long as They have legal permission to do them and As long as ppl love those songs...

As a srilankan, I'm so happy to see a talented guy like Iraj taking our small country's name to the world..


So I Guess there's nothing to discuss here.....

u r correct bro.................

EAP radio is full of such a copy music.....................

Seems like you know Iraj pretty closely. anyway i didnt talk about his remakes. If you listen watch that video clip, the scratch is directly from "Pump me Up". There is a lot of scratching in Will Smiths tack by DJ Jezzy Jrff. How pathetic to EXTRACT a scratch from someone else's track into his track. To make it worse there is a someone acting as a DJ in the video. Has Iraj or any one in the song got permission from Colombia Music or Will Smith or DJ Jezzy Jeff? i don't think so.

I'm not trying to compare senior artists and junior artists or anything here but i cant keep my mouth shut when "artists" are doing such things. I'm not blaming all those on Iraj. K. Sujeewas first song (it's not worth to remember the name even) is the most horrible copy i have seen. Don't mix up remakes and copying music.

Taking old melodies is fine as long as the original is acknowledged. In this one it's more like extracting than copying.

Prove it with proper evidence..Do a proper technical comparison here So we can see whether if it's really copied or not..
Then I'll accept it.

He don't have to prove it bcuz he didn't copy or steal it..The scratches might
go along with a similar tempo or any Other similar thing..But I can assure you that IT IS NOT FROM JESSIE'S SCRATCHS..

Even If he want to use the same scratch .. he would contact Colombia records and Request for proper permission before using it in his song without any hesitation..
Specially When it comes to a song in an album which he released under UNIVERSAL RECORDS.

Realasing an album under a label like universal records is far more complex than we see.. they have to pay big $$ for the label..followed by many regulations, conditions and terms...

relevent authorities in the company inspects the album before release..If there were such thing they'ld have noticed it. And they won't let the Track to be included in his album.Cuz it causes damage and legal problems to the company..Not the artist..
But this track IS IN HIS ALBUM..Passed every single inspection..
I hope That was clear enough for you..

why? senior or junior or wat'eva, copying WITHOUT PERMISSION cannot be accepted.

Totally agreed. she've copied another song without proper acknowledgment..
the song is called "cancion del mariachi" .. Played by a group called "Los Lobos"..Most popular as a soundtrack from the movie desperado.Now this is real copying...

exactly. agreed.

Also answer ma Q' ..

1. Do you believe (or do you know) that iraj's Mata sithanna ba is based on busta rhymes make it clap? Prove with proper evidence?

2. Can you do a proper comparison about the scratchs in the songs "a hetha" and "Pump me up?" And prove that the two scratchs are the same?

talk with facts.. Like I do..

PS : I'm not here to wash anyone's clothes..This is my sole opinion on this topic...Just talking about what's right and what's wrong..

    Why don't you do it and show they are different? This is the argument made by many people who want cover up their friends. Question has taken a 180º turn and now both of you have to prove your points. Tunes of "Preethi preethi" and "Mata sithanna ba" are identical. Doesn't matter because it is now in the public domain, after 56 years of production.

    Now what is their level of understanding about SL music? Near zero I feel. Copies from Lankan musicians will go unnoticed on these tracks.

    talk with facts.. Like I do
    I have not seen you produce a single fact to prve what you have posted. All of your posts are stories. No technica analysis has been done by you also. You'll have to prove that thay are different.

    i mean isn't this enough to get banned?
    Post like This. So then it will open up the stream on real player without going to the site. BTW, that is a song library, and no other site can produce that much of old songs.

    pamithK>> have you ever tried uploading a song like "preethi preethi" to ElaKiri BTW?
