Madonna accuses Tory Lanez of copying “Into The Groove” in his latest track

[monstertoronto 10,232]

The baseline and the other higher synthy part sound exactly the same!  Sue his ass. It’s such a well known song but did he just think it was so old no one would notice? Crazy.

I was skeptical coming in but boy oh boy is that similar 

It’s not just similar, it’s straight up lifted.  I support Madge in this one.  She’ll get paid.  

[RainingOnMe 7,280]

Not the producer of Tory's track using stems from into the groove

Yeah, I’m with Madonna on this one. Also the dude singing sounds strained like he’s really trying to take a dump idk I guess the song is the product of that dump

The only thing BTW and Express Yourself share are chord progressions, which cannot be copyrighted, so Madonna probably didn't have a case anyway.

to be fair there's also a couple notes that coincide, not enough to even be considered an interpolation, mostly just coincidence, but yeah, she didn't sue her because it would have been extremely silly, she didn't have a case otherwise i bet she wouldn't have doubted it lol, the whole thing just blew up because all that gaga was doing was already being compared with anything madonna did in the past, all sorts of reachings.

Literally a copy and paste.

Sue him. And I can't wait for her reaction when her next album doesn't debut #1 (since they don't count ticket bundles now) btw.

it literally sounds exactly same. he's singing over a cheap youtube remake of the into the groove instrumental

oh, because pop is so original

Oh hun, pop has always been vapid, but hip hop, in the not too distant past, was birthed in political and social commentary. Now it's part of the very same system it warned everyone about 

[StarstruckIllusion 52,901]

Imagine copying a song on an album that’s sold like 40 million copies. he’s such an idiot releasing this as if no one would notice or Madonna wouldn’t respond lmao 😭😭 but this man shot Megan Thee Stallion with a gun, sent her to the hospital, and laughed about it - so he’s human trash. 

[TimisaMonster 31,073]

Not even the production but even the vocals sounds like he ripped off "Never Gonna Give You Up"...one of the most viral meme songs of all time...hope THEIR team also don't file a lawsuit 

It's sad seeing artists copy other people's work instead of being original and creative...cheap fame and shortcuts gets you court and fees 

[Jay.P 2,336]

Did he really use the same instrumental/stems and released it like it's no big deal?

What does this have to do with anything in this thread? 

Ticket bundles have been used by every single artist out there, Gaga included, so what is your point? 

The fact that Madonna manages to get number 1 albums more than 30 years into her career is a an accomplishment in itself.

Is this thread not about her reaction to this guy stealing her song? I responded with "sue him" and said I'm looking forward to future reactions from her...
