In 2010, South African band, THIEVE released their track ‘Way To Go’. A video posted to YouTube compares the THIEVE track to a recently-released Will.I.Am track, featuring Justin Bieber. The description reads: “The two songs have the same melody and lyrics, except the one was made before the other.”
Thieve’s track received major radio airplay in South Africa – especially on Highveld Stereo. In addition, the music video (funded and produced by MK) was frequently broadcast on MK (DStv) and obtained over 66,000+ views on YouTube.
Here’s THIEVE’s song:
And here’s Will.I.Am and Bieber’s track, titled ‘#thatPOWER’.
Now here’s a side-by-side comparison:
Nice work, Will.I.Am! You are a super musical maestro of originality and integrity! Jokes.
