The song sucks anyway.

good artists borrow, great artists steal. I would say she wore it best.

Would you expect anything less? From someone who is known for just getting on stage to shake their ass, and sing some dumb song that other people have written?

“Men have been given the chance to rule the world.” Ladies, ladies, let's not forget you had your chance too, back in the day, what with the Mystical Womb of Baby-Creation and all the sexiness and scarcity and lack of the self-domestication of civilization, what with the female godheads, like Tiamat, before Marduk slew her, and what. Perhaps we should try running it together. But then, how sinfully communistic, to do away with needless competition.

What do you expect? “Single Ladies” video was a direct rip of an old Gwen Verdon appearance. This is just another ripoff, tweaked just enough to make it separately copyrightable.

Haters are going to hate!

That's super fucked up!

So if anybody ever performs with a massive projection on a screen behind them then that means they're copying Lorella Cuccarini? hmmm

Same premise, different executions. No one here has done any wrong.

The real crime here is Beyoncés 'song'.
A fragmented sack of crap only saved by the visuals of her dancing. More pop garbage. Disposable, meaningless and forgettable.

Looks like everyone here thinks beyonce can do no wrong. Straight up rip off.

You know the internet is a useful source of information:
from hiphopucit:
However, before people jump to conclusions: According to Concrete Loop, the same artist (Kenzo Digital) and production company (Tribe Inc Design) created the graphics and concept for both ladies’ performances. Why they would use the same exact concept for two different artists is beyond us.

Was she nominated for “best performance of a major lazer song by an artist named after fabric softener”?

Show me someone that comes up with original - never been done before in the entire history of mankind shit on a daily basis and maybe this will actually mean something… MAYBE. And for those saying she stole Major Lazer song. He's the one who assisted with production (Diplo & Switch). Lrn2research?

Derivative, but not ripped off.

yeah no shit! it's the same guys that run all the famous stars around the world. they all have the same theme, the same message. notice katy perry, gaga, beyonce, christina, rihanna.. all their new stuff is bazaar on the same level on purpose!
