I agree.
Levitating all the way
Fair enough.
Didn't know that stealing a pile of crap was illegal.
Hers are better so as a fan don't care
Ok those songs really sound very similar to Levitating, I think she should just pay them for what they're asking for and move on .
I’d rather listen to Dua lipa’s song. They want some of her fame lol
When I am inspired by other artists to write a song, I make damn sure not to rip them off. They got lazy.
Pity to those who listen to her cheap, knock up garbage. I've always considered her more of a stage performer than a singer who can u kno SING!!!
It really sounds similar!
I find it funny this news coverage completely Left out the fact that Atrikal Sound System plagiarized that hook from OutKast's 'Rosa Parks'. Further more that exact same hook can be heard in the extro of DNCE 'Cake by the ocean'
Oh that first one is identical. I hope they win.
What the f*** bad boy records was the king remix. Tht all he did was remix..
Didnt all these songs sample that Outkast song which Dua Lipa did give credit to in the first place?
Well, i think Outkast should also sue Artikal sound system because that song of theirs sounds like Rosa Park
1:29 Loose lips sinks ships, watch what you say in the press.

I ve never seen an artist perform so bored and unenthusiastic as her. Give other upcoming artists some more attention please……. so many out there without huge spam budgets who need a chance
Musical notes are finite. Similar arrangements are inevitable
There's only so many musical rhythms and melodies that are possible, even if this is a straight rip off
Everyone samples…every song now is just a remix.
Nah these so called original artists shouldn’t get anything, if it wasn’t for dua lipa no one would know who any of these artists are, and she literally made the songs Better!! Way better! Rap artists when they sample the chorus of songs from the past are literally doing the same thing just actually copping the lyrics beat and melody of the song dua lipa is simpler not, at the end of the day dua has a lot more hits then just that one song, and she definitely got more in the chamber ready to unload, trust me when I say this, she is a literal Queen
That's good for her as* they gonna learn the hard way to stop stealing others hard work
There’s actually a great Adam Neely video on this. Although they sound similar, these rhythms are fairly common in certain dance genres and it’s kind of ridiculous to claim it can be owned by someone.
File a motion to dismiss and demand legal fees. https://youtu.be/HnA1QmZvSNs
Her "Levitating" is a total rip off of the Artikal Sound System song. It's almost blatant. You would think someone would've noticed.
Nope it’s not even similar. They need to clean their ears
Don’t care still a big fan
oh yea she stole that😂😂
How can you sue over God's work? None of it belongs to anybody. I remember a time when people used to do it ALL for the glory of God.
You know she just got handed music and signed to do it no questions asked nor research done. She is not an artist, she's a young hot woman with pipes. Don't act so surprised.

who made that title…… jail
Leave her alone. Be happy that a new young girl made it… Songs are not the Same.
I thought you could take sounds and ideas and synthesize these into something new .. I thought that was absolutely legal .. I always get confused as far as these lawsuits and such .. imagine though if you actually just gave credit to those people and said I took this sound and that sound and the way the lyrics flowed here and here and just literally asked if this or that could be used if the person was alive of course and brought attention to those artists as well .. how difficult would that be .. problem is we have tracks and such that are mined by AI and then placed in a database from which we can pull from and no credit is given. Could fix that maybe .. don’t know
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷ðŸ‘ÂÂðŸÂ», There have been so many rhythms and so many Accord combinations, that it's so hard to not be plagiarized somebody these days, but they sounded very similar in my opinion, unfortunately.
That sounds like Dua Lipa is going to lose both lawsuits.

1979 they made a song that no one cares or even heard of. Dua lipa was born 1995 and now is her fault?. From this POV, that sounds more like greedy assholes that can"t accomplish what she did in 2022 all because she is more qualified and sounds 100% better and is not the whole song.
Beyonce or Jay a or whoever had hold of my song written in Los Angeles in 1998 infringed my song as well I have my recording video tape to prove it filmed at the recording studio I will survive cause I'm a survivor I will survive coz iam a warrior is miine and Beyonce song rig goes iam a survivor I will survive say rif same music almost
Let’s all be honest. That reggae song is straight trash.
There are a limited number of notes in music so obviously there are a limited number of combinations. Those combinations become even more limited when you consider cultural and social factors. Ultimately you can’t copyright a chord progression or a note, or even a melody. What can be copyrighted are specific sounds/virtual instruments/beats and lyrics. For a musician themselves the legal stuff can feel like a particularly gray area but that’s what the lawyers are for.
50/50 Between Those Songs
Reggae & Disco
Wiggle & giggle goofy ass need to chill 😂☠ï¸ÂÂ
Dua La Peep will be FINE.
Dula PEEP that
