The deal is, there are certain lyric sites who pays the record companies money for publishing their lyrics, so it's in their best interest to take down the ones who doesn't. It's all business.
Norway, blah, blah, murder, blah, blah, blood.

RUH! RUH! LIKE A DUNGEON DRAGON! :<

If they really didn't have licenses, or take permission from artists to post heir lyrics (or made deals with labels) in this day and age, they're dumb.

You even need a permission/commission to post a photo, and lyrics are bigger than that.

That's retarded. Rap Genius has so many of the artists contributing to their own songs anyway.

Maybe they should ask artists to pay them, if they want their lyrics to be on RG.
