Upstanding gentlemen Chris Brown and will.i.am accused of plagiarizing their new track
Upstanding gentlemen and independent thinkers will.i.am and Chris Brown have been accused of plagiarizing a new song. The track, “Let’s Go,” was one of several from will.i.am’s new record, willpower, uploaded to his YouTube page yesterday, and features guest vocals from Brown. It also may or may not rip off another song, “Rebound,” made by well-known house producers Arty and Mat Zo.
Damningly, the songs do sound quite a bit like each other, and Zo claims will.i.am approached the duo about using the song before, but the pair declined. Arty says that the rights for the song were never cleared through its label, Anjunabeats.
