Fair use rationale for The Notorious B.I.G.
editThis is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use by I (Laalaaa 20:41, 31 January 2007 (UTC)) because:
- It illustrates an educational article the performer and co-writer of this piece of music, The Notorious B.I.G.
- The sample demonstrates one of The Notorious B.I.G.'s 1996 collaborations with an R&B group. It is used to demonstrate his use of onomatopoeic vocables, multi-syllabic rhymes and accompaniment by Sean Combs in verses.
- It is a sample of no more than 30 seconds from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording.
- It is of a lower quality than the original recording.
- It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
- It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
