uhm, I can hear a bit of resemblance, but not enough I think. Moreover, he released that in the 70s, so he didn't notice when Jackson released it, but it took 30 years and Rhianna for him to notice?

RTFA. Jackson already acknowledged the sample and reached an agreement with him years ago. When Rhianna lifted the sample for her music, she did not get the original artist's agreement. Michael does not own the music and so could not give permission for what he did not create.

Dumbass? Maybe on MJ's part, since it wasn't HIS music to begin with, he shouldn't have let her sample it, he should have pointed her in the direction of the original composer. Or next time she should write her own farking music.
