You totally contradict yourself there. Further down you claim the song is not associated to Warner, which in my opinion sounds reasonable, personally thinking about it I guess "they" might not even have a copy of the song. The whole they want to screw with us is complete bullshit. Just the usual Warner is so evil plot.
We would already have the song if there weren't these legal issues. It's pretty much the same issue She Couldn't had, they tried to release the song too but couldn't work it out. I'm not a media lawyer but I'm sure the sample issues are big enough to prevent any sort of release. I guess it doesn't matter if it's free or not. I assume if the original artist of the sample doesn't want it to be used, so a release is not possible. You can't sample something without permission. They can do whatever they want in the studio/at home, that's something completely different.
I think it's either one of the possiblities, the sampled artists declines or they ask for too much money. The music industry takes sampling very seriously.
All lthere is the statement from Mike and the rest is just assumption, we might never get it. The whole thing is just completely overhyped. It wouldn't suprise me if Mike regrets now that he ever mentioned it cause people can't shut up about it. I'd understand if we previously heard a piece of the song but we literally know nothing about it. I doubt it's better than any of the other Xero songs, they are good but not mindblowing either.
