Maslo: Shameless Plagiarism

Is it just me, or are artists today all shamelessly plagiarising on everything they can lay hands on? Well, whatever the case is, the recent hot star G-dragon has been turned into a victim himself by no other than MASLO. Poor Gd TT

Maslo who? Maslo (pronounced meh-sul-lo) is famous to those in touch with the Korean underground hip hop scene. Maslo teamed up with another underground artist from Soul Connection named "JEPP" to release an album called "BLACKOUT."

If the album cover didn't do it, their song which is identical to GD's "Heartbreaker" will certainly create a buzz amongst VIP's and netizens alike.

The "BLACKOUT" album was digitally released today and they will perform this song for the first time at an underground showcase at November 11th.

Many netizens feel that Maslo is doing this for "noise marketing," to become popular in the mainstream. However, Maslo's fans have stated that "Maslo is already known in the underground realm and doesn't even want to go mainstream." Other netizens also voiced their opinions saying that people can just view this as an "anti-GD track" and should just be dismissed.

Another netizen is speculating that if Maslo was asked if he plagiarized "Heartbreaker," Maslo will respond with "no... I just sampled Flo Rida's 'Right Round.'"

It is uncertain if YG will seek legal actions however, there have been buzz that they will which might even bring more light into this situation.

As for the song teaser itself... we would like to rate it C for crap.

Late news.



Hwangbo’s MV for her latest song Arisong in her soon to be released Mini Album; entitled HwangBo vs. Postino & Shimity ARISONG! was released recently. I only knew today TT I saw her performance on Friday's Music Banks, and thought "Who in the world is this ==? And changed the channel" Sorry Hwangbo, as much as I love you -especially in WGM with Hyun Joong oppa- I ain't buying it =( Her voice sounded alot more deeper in WGM, I'm having my doubts...

But for visitors reading this, check it out below!



As this covers of hers reveals:



* (small note: The album cover picture was taken in New York recently too)

But unlike any K-Artist; Hwangbo has already release this song as a digital single in EUROPE already! It was released on the 31st of July. With this, I believe it makes her the first K- artist to release a single in another country first rather than their own.

Thus this digital single is currently also available for purchase on JunoDownload, the world's largest dance music store based in the United Kingdom. Her song even made it to the No.2 Spot on JunoDownload's singles download chart on the day of release. Few days passed and Hwangbo made it to the #1 spot too! (August 9th, 2009)! (Congrates to Hwangbo!).
