Kid Capri is addressing what he says is one particularly famous use of his voice. The iconic DJ his was used in the popular theme song for the hit sitcom Martin and that he never got credit for it. In a new interview with Bag Fuel, Kid Capri explains where the sample came from and why he hasn’t taken an issue with it until now.

“They took my voice from Def Comedy Jam, sampled it, put it on the Martin show,” Capri explained. “Never got no permission from me, never asked for my rights, nothing. This show [has] been on eight different networks for 30 years. Now if it was a money thing for me, I would [have] been like, ‘Yo where’s my bread?’ I ain’t never did that.”

Originally airing on the FOX network from 1992 through 1997, Martin has now aired on multiple networks over the past three decades. Capri initially let the issue slide, but says he felt compelled to say something, after the show’s stars Martin Lawrence and Tisha Campbell allegedly denied that the voice was his. Capri is now considering legal action.

Capri previously talked about the issue last year during an appearance on the Fun House Podcast with Kid ‘n Play.

“[Anyone] that knows me would know it’s me,” Capri said at the time. “And it would be foolish to say it’s anybody else. I think Martin overstepped his boundaries, number one, by taking something that belonged to me without getting my permission.”

“They went and took my property. You got everybody wandering around the country saying ‘Martinnnnnn,’” Capri added, according to Atlanta Black Star. “But to go and take it and then get on your show later on and have Tisha Campbell say on Fox Soul that that wasn’t Capri, that’s Cole, um, and then you get on your show in your reunion to say it wasn’t me, it’s a blatant slap in the face and a disrespect to me.”
