The funny thing is that that Madonna song samples a Public Enemy track for its beat.

The sample was obtained without consent.

(The lyrics were also stolen from Ingrid Chavez, also without consent. She sued and won.)

The funniest is Madonna stole the beat of "Justify my love" from My Bloody Valentine,an indie rock band. They sued Madonna and won.
