(313) DJ Rap's stuff stolen???

2004-10-21 Thread George Jones IV - Logic7
I just got this email a few minutes ago, anyone else hear about this? Can
anyone confirm that it's true? (anyone have direct contact with DJ Rap???)

Charissa (DJ Rap) asked me to post this:

On Oct. 18 Josh NYNEX (Josh Atchley) from LA  Offworld Records broke
into Charissa's studio/home in LA and took the following items. There
is strong belief that they were sold to someone in AZ recently.

The items are listed below:

- 1 G4 Power Mac
- 1 G4 Power Book
- 1 Ipod
- 1 17 inch plasma display
- 1971 US Blond Fender Stratocaster Guitar (we feel he kept this item
for himself)

Now here is the big problem. All of Charissa's songs for her upcoming
new album and lyrics she has been working on for both the new album
and other projects were on these computers, along with a variety of
personal items like photos, emails form family and friend and such.

I'm not going into how low this action is for someone claiming to be
a musician to steal from another is just shocking and repulsive.

Anyone who can offer any information please contact me (see below)
and I'll forward it on the Charissa. The fact that 4 years of her
life and artistic creation has vanished which in turn may deprive us
of ever hearing her new material is just sickening. She wouldn't be
so upset if it just a computer with some emails on it but this is
much more serious since those computer contained her blood, sweat and
tears.

I don't have to point out to some that this happened to BT a while
ago twice. Once he lost several finished songs that we will never
hear, however the second time someone returned all his items after
posts were made all over the internet. So we have hope Josh and the
person in possession of these items will do the right thing.

Shame on you Josh! Serious... Musicians stick together as family with
a unified mission.

leads and info to these missing items please send emails to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] , it will be kept private at your request.

PLEASE POST THIS EVERYWHERE POSSIBLE, ALERT ALL MUSICIANS, PAWNSHOPS,
MUSIC STORES AND MUSIC WEBSITES (INCLUDING THOSE WHO HAVE
MEMBERS/VIEWERS FROM THOSE STATES) IN CALIFORNIA AND ARIZONA,
INCLUDING SURROUNDING STATES.
Peace

whoa...

how does anyone know this josh guy did this?  pretty irresponsible to 
propagate this kind of information unless there is some hard evidence, in 
which case, sending this to everyone isnt necessary, because you could call 
the police and have him thrown in jail

Off-topic, but another good lesson for all the musicians out there: 
BACK UP YOUR STUFF!


Not the first time I've heard of someone's stuff getting stolen and 
with it went the only copy of their new record/song/etc. It baffles me 
that musicians take their precious creations and treat them with so 
little care. Beyond theft, there's hard drive crashes, fires, or any 
other of a myriad of disasters which could befall your data.


The little bit of time it takes to do something as simple as burning a 
few CD-R's and putting them somewhere off-site is a lot better than 
losing four years of work.



Heh, which reminds me... I need to make some backups. I've got two 
copies of nearly everything at home, but I'm a bit lax on the off-site 
backups.

well if your stuff does go missing (and you have backed up) it's a 
great excuse to give out if you haven't been cracking on with the 
material that the label gave you the huge advance to do :) ( cough BT 
cough).


i agree with you on the backup advice btw..

See, I don't know if this is even true or not. I got it from the AZ-Raves
list that I'm subbed to and wanted to know if this was even true. It seemed
kinda fishy to me, seeing as how the message indicated that they knew who
did it. Just wanted to know if anyone here may be able to shed light on it.


and, for the record, everyone should back up their stuff like I do: CD, Zip,
AND floppy. I back up sequences and patch data to all 3, samples an audio
tracks to CD, and samples to zip . Gotta have redundancy folks.

And always get insurance on your equipment. Especially if it's a good
portion of your livelihood.

I wonder if there is any insurance on work-in-progress or completed works
if you have proof that you possessed the DATs.
I mean if music is being treated as intellectual property by the government
why wouldn't an insurance agency support it too?

 a musician to steal from another is just shocking and repulsive.

 Anyone who can offer any information please contact me (see below)
 and I'll forward it on the Charissa. The fact that 4 years of her
 life and artistic creation has vanished which in turn may deprive us
 of ever hearing her new material is just sickening. She wouldn't be
 so upset if it just a computer with some emails on it but this is
 much more serious since those computer contained her blood, sweat and
 tears.

 I don't have to point out to some that this happened to BT a while
 ago twice. Once he lost several finished songs that we will never
 hear, however the second time someone returned all his items after
 posts were made all over the internet. So we have hope Josh and the
 person in possession of these items

 I mean if music is being treated as intellectual property by the
government why wouldn't an insurance agency support it too?

Hmm I can see real problems with estimating the value of the missing work -

customer I'm telling you man it was a masterpiece!  I've lost millions now
the cornerstone of my career has gone

insurer no we reckon you were gonna get 50 knock backs from labels, press
it up yourself and then get knocked back by distributors.  So you owe us
£500 for the money we've saved you.

Well, no but a flat rate would be something.

Equally important to store at least ONE backup copy off-site, if 
possible. Doesn't matter how many backups you have if the building 
burns down and destroys them all (for example.) Doh!


Not that I'm thorough about it, I have two copies of most stuff on two 
different computers but very little of it is backed up off-site. Hmm... 
time to start burning some CD-R's.

and, for the record, everyone should back up their stuff like I do:

tracks to CD, and samples to zip . Gotta have redundancy folks.
