It has been almost a year since producer Big Makk passed away. The community surrounding Mad Decent mourned the sudden loss of their colleague. About ten months have passed and someone has recently claimed the producer’s work as their own. A producer by the name of DJ GRIF8 posted a song identical to ‘Imma Rock‘. GRIF8’s actions were brought to light via Twitter and the community filled with friends and fans of the late producer. Once it was realized, they began to tear GRIF8 apart through Twitter. These are just a few examples of the outrage that he has caused:
Someone just showed me a @djGriF8 track. It was a @BIGMAKK_. FUCK THIS MAN

Except this time you claimed the work of our deceased friend as yours, Congrats now you're a pathetic thief.

The track is no longer on GRIF8’s SoundCloud, but the damage has already been caused. It is completely disrespectful to copy another artists’ work and thankfully, Big Makk has a strong community that still supports his music.
