Nigerian singer Lyta has been accused of music video plagiarism by South Korean K-pop fans.
K-pop fans took to Twitter to decry the uncanny similarities between Naira Marley’s new signee’s video for the song “Hold Me Down” and “Just Right” by South Korean K-pop boy band GOT7.
A Twitter fan page of GOT7 @GOT7_JYP noted the similarity between both videos.
“Please take legal action on this. We do not accept plagiarism,” they tweeted and tagged the boy band official Twitter account.
Along with their tweet, the fan page shared a video in which both music videos were placed together.
Lyta’s “Hold Me Down” music video was released yesterday via Naira Marley’s YouTube account.
