GDragon plagiarises with ‘Heartbreaker’? “It’s just a preview, please wait for the full song

[kishikiari.livejournal.com]

Big Bang GDragon’s solo title song ‘Heartbreaker’ has been said to have plagiarised other’s music.

GDragon released the preview to his solo album title song ‘Heartbreaker’ at about 5pm on 11th August which he has set to reveal on 12th initially, a 30seconds preview on me2day site.

The reason to releasing the previews were said to let fans know of some of the music to be included in his first solo album to be released on 18th August. But with the reveal of ‘Heartbreaker’ there has been debates that it plagiarises Flo Rida’s ‘Right Round’.

Netizens went, “Just 30 seconds revealed but it sounds exactly the same”, “Even though there are similarities, the melody is different” etc

With that YG Entertainment said, “Now we only revealed just 30 seconds to the song, it is ridiculous to call it plagiarism. ‘Heartbreaker’ did not plagiarise other’s music. Please look forward to the full song.”

[applepieprinces.livejournal.com]

GD IS OSM please accept the FACT.

[chiroro.livejournal.com]

....don't all songs in that genre generally sound the same? besides its just a preview. :\

[sejitonyx.livejournal.com]

OT BUT! Does anyone recall the "Korean" version of Right Round? it was a remake and there was a video and everything ;-;

[baeraki.livejournal.com]

YES.

...and it was awful XD
i'll never get how "Right Round" became popular in the first place >.>

[bayergal.livejournal.com]

Yeah well Flo Rida fucked up an amazing song so I don't really care.
Besides GD sounds hot and he probably isn't talking about oral sex.
So viva la Dragon!

ohhh netizens, you nv fail to amuse me. *plays psp*

[marochi-x.livejournal.com]

A few seconds of plagiarism is A-OK.

Almost all music is recycled these days, anyway.
But if GD/YG knew about "Right Round"..what was the point srsly.
I understand the beat and all, but he even rapped like FloRida in the song.

[des-akazim.livejournal.com]

I agree. it IS really. really similar.

[polysweet.livejournal.com]

THANK YOU DAMMIT.

[xjellybellyy.livejournal.com]

haha omg your icon is love

[nene718.livejournal.com]

I was waiting for this.

[f-i-x-m-e.livejournal.com]

They're forgetting that Right Round is a butchered piece of shit that is a disgrace to the original song.
I doubt it's plagiarism, GD is capable of making amazing and original songs.
I'll take YG's word for it, the preview sounds hot anyways.

They're forgetting that Right Round is a butchered piece of shit that is a disgrace to the original song.

Exactly. This is why I am so pissed that people are even bringing it up in the first place.

BTW

[xjellybellyy.livejournal.com]

does anyone have a translation of the lyrics?

Re: BTW

[xjellybellyy.livejournal.com]

nvm!

Translation:
A-yo, finally! Is this what you been waiting for?
Brand-new G.D! I'm all by myself, but it's all good!
You're my heartbreaker.
DJ and YG! Let me take this over.
I'm also not second to anyone anywhere. I'm still usable, I haven't died.
Just because of you, my body has been destroyed, my dream has vanished, my feelings can't be found.
I'll sacrifice my body for you. I'll run to wherever you are. But you always say goodbye and goodbye to me.

these netizens need to get off gd's nuts for reals

[ninja-starshine.livejournal.com]

oh come on, why would he rip off a flo rida song when he's such an amazing writer/composer himself?

*sigh*

[miduhyo.livejournal.com]

yeah, they obvs sound incredibly similar, but you'd have to be a huge dumbass to actually accuse someone of plagiarism after barely hearing 30 seconds of a song.

not that i'm judging you or anything, netizens. :)

[niara-honey.livejournal.com]

wow. The song doesn't even sound as similiar as FLO RIDA'S EXACT SAMPLE OF DEAD OR ALIVE'S SPIN ME RIGHT ROUND. Why don't they betch about that?! Flo Rida used some of the exact words.
Gawd (betchy) netizens raise my blood pressure. So annoying.

btw. I can't wait for this song. Can't wait for his album! (/♥o♥\)

IDK, I don't think he was trying to hide the fact that he sampled it. It's a great song originally, probably why its the hook of Flo Rida's version.

Who the fuck says that a song is plagiarized after listening to 30 seconds?

Re: FAIL

[goldengutgirl.livejournal.com]

AND IT'S RAP. lol so you know, using the same breaks does not qualify as plagiarism.

[nudrive.livejournal.com]

Flo Rida sampled a song though

I don't even hear the similarities
Lets wait for the full song yeah -.-

[jtyy239.livejournal.com]

LOL PLZ.

[liime-arix.livejournal.com]

Isn't Right Round a rip from the original?

[electrikkthrust.livejournal.com]

yes.
which is why this whole 'plagiarism' is stupid.
