original work

Today we deal with a sometimes touchy subject. Plagiarism. It’s a dirty word that’s more gray than black and white and its not always intentional. Artists throughout time have always been inspired by other artists, and this is a good thing that brings about movements and awareness. Here’s an interesting comparison between two songs. Judge for yourself whether this is a case of inspiration or just a straight copy. Like I said it’s never black and white but sometimes things need to be taken at face value. Sometimes it’s so obvious it’s a wonder people can get away with stuff like that. It just goes to show that the more money you have and if your amazingly full of yourself you can claim and do anything you want (Oooooo, that sounded like a dig).
