“Does that sound familiar to you?” she asked followers. “Cause that sound really familiar to me. Ain’t that the lil’ song I made about brown women and their hair? Hmm… sounds about white!”
Nokia, real name Destiny Nicole Frasqueri, then retweeted a follower’s post, which seemed to suggest she wasn’t the only one spotting the similarities between the songs.
“I’ma big @princessnokia fan… AG’s new album literally plagiarizes flows, words, bars from Nokia,” Camouflage Don wrote. “yo what a shame, millions of dollars and a TEAM of people to make and write your music… yet they STILL STEAL.”
Other followers later tweeted: “Helll yeah Ariana is always appropriating black culture…,” and, “man she even attempted to copy your tone of voice”, while another wrote: “SUE AND GET YOIR (sic) COINS.”
Ariana released her new track, which she claims was inspired by a jewellery shopping trip she took with a friend following her split from ex-fiance Pete Davidson, on Friday morning. The track is a modern spin on ‘My Favorite Things’ from ‘The Sound of Music’ soundtrack. Grande has yet to respond to the controversy.
