Music Matchup: The Knack "My Sharona" --VERSUS-- Run-D.M.C. "It's Tricky!"
In 2006, The Knack sued Run-D.M.C. for copyright infrigement, alleging Run-D.M.C. sampled their song "My Sharona" in Run-D.M.C.'s hit song "It's Tricky," and thus, were owed compensation. The case was settled out of court that same year.
In this music matchup, Mark wants to get to the bottom of this whole thing and see if The Knack's claim had some merit. Come hang out with Mark and let us know what you think of this whole ordeal in the comments.
