Anjunabeats releases official statement regarding Will.i.am and ‘Rebound’
After remaining relatively quiet regarding Will.i.am's blatant plagiarism of Arty and Mat Zo's "Rebound," Anjunabeats has just released an official statement on the matter. While it is true that Will.i.am. credited Arty in the sleeve notes (but not Mat Zo), Anjunabeats attests that he did not receive permission to use the track. As of writing, there has been no official paperwork filed by either party for the use of the track, further implicating Will.i.am. in this ongoing case of copyright infringement. It seems you actually can't take someone's work without them knowing and then thank them for it later. Who knew?
Will.i.am rips off Arty and Mat Zo’s ‘Rebound’ for latest single [Updated]
Will's VEVO uploaded the fifth track from the album, "Let's Go" alongside Chris Brown, and the preview has the dance music community up in arms. "Let's Go" appears to be a blatant ripoff of Arty and Mat Zo's Anjunabeats release, "Rebound" and not just a sample, the entire track.
