[NEWS/VIDEO] Italian singer Alex Palmieri, 4minute's 'Muzik' Plagiarism Controversy

Italian singer Alex Palmieri, 4minute's 'Muzik' Plagiarism Controversy

Plagiarism accusations directed at an Italian singer copying 4minute's "Muzik" have surfaced.

Singer Alex Palmieri performed "Disco Music," which appeared on the singer's album released last year on the Italian TV program, 'Social King 2.0,' and the song has been found to be incredibly similar, both in the rhythm and melody, to 4minute's 2009 song, "Muzik." Palmieri has been known in the past to copy American songs, giving this accusation more credit.

Netizens weighing in on the matter said "This is basically a transcription of the original," "Please realize how embarrassing this is," and "Copying famous songs is regrettable," among other critical comments.
