YG Entertainment speaks about G-Dragon’s plagiarized HEARTBREAKER

big bang

G-Dragon is HEARTBREAKING once again. G-Dragon's recent teaser of his new solo album song "HEARTBREAKER" has been under lots of scrutiny for plagiarizing off of Flo Rida's "Right Round," which was also a remake of Dead or Alive's "You Spin Me Round."

As an immediate response to the accusations, on the 11th, YG Entertainment stated, "In no way was Heartbreaker plagiarized. This is a completely original track created by G-Dragon."

The problem now however is that today on the 12th, YG Entertainment contradicted their original statement and stated, "Up until this point, G-Dragon's solo album has been touched by many hands. It was co-produced and the title song 'Heartbreaker' had been produced hand in hand with Swedish producers."

It's not the first time YG Entertainment has released contradictory statements... anyone beginning to see a trend?

G-Dragon had been accused of plagiarizing many times in the past from artists such as, Mariah Carey, Maroon 5, Janet Jackson, Free TEMPO, DAISHI DANCE, and Ginuwine. Some of which were properly credited and accusations later dropped.

Regardless, because of these constant accusations of plagiarism, G-Dragon will constantly be bombarded with suspicions of plagiarism. Not a good track record.

thanks to ydpark for the tip.
