New wave pioneer Thomas Dolby says he's contemplating legal action against Britney's other half for allegedly sampling Dolby's 1983 hit "She Blinded Me with Science" without permission.
Federline's latest song, "America's Most Hated," was recently released through the aspiring rapper's MySpace page and seems to sample Mobb Deep's "Got It Twisted," which in turn had (legally) sampled a riff from Dolby's smash single.
"Kevin Federline, whom I'd never heard of until a few days ago, appears to have illegally sampled one of my compositions," Dolby posted on his blog after getting tipped off to the track by a fan. "And laws aside, he owed it to me as an artist to ask if I minded that he recorded a vitriolic rap over the top of my music."
