B2ST
’s fans around the world are outraged by a recent controversy brought up by a Japanese band.

The usual detective work by netizens led to the discovery of a Japanese band named  U.I.C (UGLY in CLARITY) and suspicions arose that the band plagiarized B2ST’s debut track, ‘Bad Girl‘, after listening to one of their songs titled ‘NAKED SUN‘.

Being the first track of U.I.C’s first album ‘ADDICTRO‘, which was released eight months after B2ST, ‘NAKED SUN’ seems to have the same beat and also a rap part that almost synchronizes with ‘Bad Girl’. The overall feel of the song has a strong resemblance as well.

You can judge by checking out the comparison below.


U.I.C – ‘NAKED SUN’



B2ST – ‘Bad Girl’



Outraged fans have been notifying CUBE Entertainment, which lead to the company stating, “We heard of the suspected plagiarism from fans. We didn’t have the opportunity to thoroughly evaluate the song yet, however, we will be making a thorough review to see if there’s possible plagiarism.”

What is your opinion, is it a copy?

Really?!!
I'm not even a Beast fan and I think I listened to "Bad Girl" 3 times at the most and I could totally say it was the same tune...

Sounds the same lol. its not a parody, or a cover? but I like it....lmao.

It might sound different to some because the lyrics and phrasing are different, but that is totally a complete rip-off of Bad Girl. I like how it sounds though. Makes me want to look up the group's songs. XD

It's almost the same rhythm but they thought they fool us if they used slightly different notes... HA! They are sadly mistaken.

Yeah the song is basically a rearrangement of Bad Girl. Also, this MV looks so low-budget. Almost like something some friends of mine would make in their spare time with iMovie or something. And dat 'dance break'...=|
