Interesting phenomena, ripping crummy music to turn it into even worse music

(Im really glad I deleted my twitter account so that I'm not inclined to say what I'm about to say in under 140 characters)
I really and truely appreciate all the support you are giving me and Arty in response to Will I Am's copyright infringement. However, this doesnt excuse the horrific abuse youre sending the way of Will I Am and Chris Brown, and it especially doesnt excuse being racist.
Thank you
Mat Zo

I didnt leave twitter because of 'Lets Go'. I deleted my account the day before for personal reasons, when I had no clue about 'Lets Go'. The day after was the first I've ever heard of the will.i.am track. Its was a complete coincidence.
Just sayin
The two tracks in question are from Will.i.am's fourth studio album, '#willpower'.
Will's track 'Let's Go' featuring Chris Brown is said to copy Arty and Mat Zo's Anjuna hit 'Rebound'.
Also, Will's track 'Bang Bang' is said to be extremely similar to the well known drop in Sandro Silva and Quintino's festival smasher 'Epic'.
Although pop acts using dance music samples is widespread as of late (see Flo Rida), the brazen use in this case is noteworthy due to the fact that no one from Will's camp asked for permission.
Mat Zo has deactivated his Twitter but claimed he is "not bitter about this".
In a Facebook post, Mat Zo wrote: "Arty and I are not bitter about this, more surprised. We knew Will.i.am was interested in this track, but declined working with him at the time.
"I really and truly appreciate all the support you are giving me and Arty in response to Will.i.am's copyright infringement. However, this doesn't excuse the horrific abuse you're sending the way of Will.i.am and Chris Brown, and it especially doesn't excuse being racist."
Chris Brown has already pleaded ignorance, stating "I don't even know who Mat Zo or Arty is?"
He actually ripped 5 songs:
Will.I.Am. Lets Go = Arty & Mat Zo - Rebound.
Will.I.Am. Bang Bang = Sandro Silva & Quintino - Epic.
Will.I.Am - #thatPOWER = Arty - Kate.
Will.I.Am. Great Times Are Coming = Deniz Koyu - Tung!
Will.I.Am. Good Morning = High Highs - Flowers Bloom.
