Under Pressure is a beautiful song from Queen and David Bowie which it got covered by several artists(My Chemical Romance,etc). This case that we choose is Vanilla Ice (a so-called hiphop) who adapt Under Pressure into his own mostly pop style of music; somehow, he did not give any credit to the original owner. Needless to say, he was sued and legally forced to pay the compensation. Eventually, he had to credit Queen and Bowie due to the law and also wasted his money in this lawsuit. Therefore, If you want to use others intellectual property, please give a credit or you might be filed for your usage.
