It's sadly true. 

Just this thread show many of us would rather humiliate a dude rather than admitting that Gaga's team messed up.

The denial is huge and so is the bad faith. :ladyhaha:

I mean it's not like Kavinsky's track is "original".. it's interpolating Smalltown Boy

Facts fr. It's like when fans were attacking Adele over the 2012 Grammys. I can understand the frustration, but people were legit fat-shaming Adele like crazy over the whole things. It was so sad.

That sucks, I've liked him for a long time and I can see his point of view. I'm getting flashbacks to Infected Mushroom shading Gaga for Aura. 

Inside my head I have the best time

Him and Guy-Man are still not credited on Apple Music, the only place to legally access it. 

 

Gaga's team need to address this ASAP. This is not cool and people need to be less mental when an artist calls out another artist for not crediting their ART. 

People have been successfully sued for stuff that sounds less lifted.

I checked the credits for it on Apple Music and yeah he isn't credited. He is on Genius and Wikipedia but those can be edited. I think she could have credited him especially since it was used so heavily, in the past she has been adamant about giving credit and shouting out the people who work with her so this is strange.

There's no info in the OP and I'm confused. Which song of his is he saying she ripped off? And which of her songs? I wanna compare

I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.

He’s saying the REQUIEM version of DWAS is a rip off of his song Nightcall

Again, I genuinely don’t think they either sampled or interpolated Nightcall. It’s in a different key and the arpeggios throughout the instrumental are different. Nightcall has become a staple in a lot of synthwave, so there’s a lot of music in that style that is heavily inspired by it or derivative of it, but there’s no solid evidence of the presence of anything other than a stylistic similarity.

I mean, again, the bullying is obviously wrong, but also: why should she credit him for something she neither sampled nor interpolated? Stylistic similarities =\= direct lift of any kind. If we applied this argument more broadly to Gaga’s catalogue, we’d be saying Madonna deserves credits on BTW and Babylon, Bowie and Prince deserve credits on Killah etc.
