Diplo Wages Twitter War On Flo-Rida For Ripping Off His Video

Not content with ‘sampling’ other people’s super successful tracks and ‘remaking’ them for modern pop radio, Flo-Rida has now taken to borrowing other people’s music videos too.

He’s been clocked by super producer Diplo, who caught Flo-Rida’s track ‘Can’t Believe It’ (ironically featuring fellow serial popular-beat-jacker Pitbull) and thought it bore more than a slight resemblance to his own video ‘Butter’s Theme’.

Flo-Rida has yet to respond – he’s probably pumping mad iron in the gym or running shirtless through traffic listening to potential sampling opportunities on his iPod — but here are Diplo’s thoughts on the matter:
