๐ช Limp Bizkit vs. Cirque du Soleil: The “Getcha Groove On” Sample Saga ๐ค
Think “Getcha Groove On” is just a nu-metal track? Think again. Limp Bizkit faced legal action from Cirque du Soleil for using an uncredited sample from their Cirque Reinvente soundtrack.
๐ง What Went Down?
The track “Getcha Groove On” from Limp Bizkit’s 2000 album Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water featured a sample from Cirque du Soleil’s “Aerial Trapeze Act.” This sample was used without proper clearance, leading to legal action from Cirque du Soleil. As a result, the original version was replaced with the “Dirt Road Mix” on streaming platforms, though physical copies still contain the original.
