Editor’s Note: Thanks to the HipHopDX reader community and Danny Swain, our Editorial staff was made aware that portions of the album review of Danny!’s Payback were plagiarized from already published reviews on two different sites. We immediately pulled the review from our site, and apologize to the readers and Danny Swain for the unfortunate actions of the freelance writer we hired to write the review. We’ve left the 4/5 rating of the album up on the site because it reflects the consensus of our music editors and the quality of the album. HipHopDX has a strict policy against plagiarism and we’re thankful that the reader community and Danny Swain made us aware of the issue so quickly. – Jake Paine, Editor-in-Chief
i can’t WAIT to hear this!
dem beats bruh
So basically this review straight jacked these two: http://notafuckingblogger.com/2012/01/17/dannypaybackreview/ AND http://www.rapreviews.com/archive/2012_01F_dannypayback.html.

and then cut and paste
Nice reblog.
YO YOU DUMB FUCKIN BITCH. what makes you think you should get paid for plagerism, you didnt even listen to the album you hoe you just went around and took different parts of reviews to make your own. WE ON TO YOU YOU DUMB BITCH FUCK THIS SITE
it’s about to be something serious from this right here!
Yo wtf? You just straight jacked your “review” from two other, more credible reviews. Instead of just getting other people’s work you need to do your own stuff. HHDX needs to get their shit together. Fuck this.
Why are you taking credit for reviews you did not write?
You are nothing more than a middle school plagerist. You couldn’t even give credit to the original writers tho? you copied whole paragraphs but you couldn’t copy two people’s names? People who actually took time to listen to, write, and review the album, really?
i wanna thank you for showing us what Hiphopdx is all about.
You can’t blame hiphopdx for that tho. How would they know that was a copied review?
they should stop hiring hacks that cant do their fucking job
Let me know if you guys are hiring reviewers after the plagiaristic sack of shit this scrub just fished out. May she be awarded no points, and may God have mercy on her soul**.
As potential listeners, we’re glad we can count on you officially co-signing with more reputable critics/websites, but COME ON, CHICK. Danny! is a beast and you didn’t even give him a legitimate listen. I’m sorry you didn’t fail out of college. You’ve lost all your integrity (not that it’s saying much), and you should be fired.

wow.. came in here to speak on the bullshit, but i guess everyone in here already knows. FUCK HIPHOPDX

Everyone send the “writer” a message on Facebook expressing how much you loved her article.

now that we got a retracted review, can we have someone write up an original review after they ACTUALLY LISTEN to the album.
