- As of 7/29/19 Dr. Luke lost the lawsuit for stealing the Dark Horse riff: www.thesun.co....
UPDATE: Dr. Luke steals again! :
• Dr Luke Steaks Again!
Wide Awake Stolen: • Dr. Luke Steaks Wide A...
Dr Luke Masterclass: • Dr. Luke Master Class ...
Pop music has never been so thoroughly monopolized before, two middle age white guys have written and produced almost every single female pop artist in the last 15 years, everyone from Avril Lavigne to Arianna Grande, from Pink to Katy Perry to Kesha, M Cyrus, this list goes on and on. All of it has been written and produced by either Max Martin, Dr. Luke or both. That's why so much modern pop sounds the same or sounds derivative and when Dr. Luke's involved, sounds stolen.
Will Loomis Except for Lana del rey's songs. She only took an advise regarding lyrics & bass programming from Max martin for title song LFL. And she did the whole recording in Rick nowel's studio. I also don't like Martin. Every songs produced by him sounds same
Will Loomis Lady Gaga writes and co produces all of her music. She has never worked with Dr. Luke or Max Martin.
Lady Gaga writes her own music maybe someone else produced it but she definitely writes it all
You all forget that Mutt Lang is still a producer in the industry he produced "You and I" from Lady Gaga. Even gets a credit on the album.
+Kashi Sinha Avril Lavigne writes a fair amount, about 70% I'd say out of her career. However, " The Best Damn Thing " ; is one where she wrote barely anything. Many of her earlier albums she wrote a larger percentage of the songs and has started recently getting back into it.
Pink & Katy write much of their own music. They typically each have co-writers, though write a fair amount alone as well. Lady Gaga is praised for her song writing, but... also among many is . . . how do I put it?
The public thinks differently of Gaga than she really is. The woman isn't only a sell out, but is known as a glorified recycling bin. She goes PAST inspiration and knocks off songs often just on the border of plagiarism and has owned up to taking songs she likes and just altering them beyond legal guidelines. Even saying " It doesn't make me a thief, it just makes me smarter. " ; and yes I know the definition of inspiration.
Inspiration is like . . . " What's A Girl To Do " by Bat For Lashes, obviously inspired by The Shangrilas " Never Go Home " ; still completely different songs.
Gaga is over here claiming to write her own music with songs like " Fashion of His Love " that are obviously Whitney Houston's " I Wanna Dance With Somebody " , for example. Among dozens of others. She is no better than Dr. Luke, they are both liars and get away with theft due to their massive success and in Gaga's case? Major backlash accusers will get from fans , while in Luke's case? Backlash accusers will get from SOME fans but mostly the music industry.
He's a Fraud..
He started as a remixer. He IS a thief. its all he knows!
vaughn its called sampling
vaughn Remixing is not thievery. He is a mediocre remixer in my opinion.
+Mer Feraine Remixing isn't theft, but he doesn't just do remixing. He is a plagiarist and that is undeniable.
iTeacupPanda exactly
He's not even a real doctor
CellarDoor 😂
CellarDoor Meek mill be like
This comment is gold :-))
Im not a doctor either but im willing to take a look!
😂😂😂💀💀💀
I hope your praying..
Yousif Plays more like start praying
I hope you learn that *you're* is the contraction of 'you are'.
stfu, it's a kesha song
@@AYEForApplesauce make her
Shemika__ _ tf I just said it's a kesha song You kesha hater
That domino one tho could be the same song exactly
VShahOfficial ikr like a duet
VShahOfficial yeah and they shamelessly asked the band for a copy. Imagine a less known band thinking a record company is interested in them to then have it play on the radio. I bet they were livid. I hope they got some money out of it.
and he got away with it
Teera Xo that's not all he got away with
Why did he not ask for permission to sample the instrumentals like most producers do? What's wrong with being creative and coming up with your own instrumentals? What a fraud
Because then u have to pay them and also royalties somewhere like 50 percent so he wants 100
Because then people will say you're just a copy cat. It's good to look like a genius whatever 🤣😂
He just need to work out on Sample Clearance
He's white.
samples is taking the audio directly , making something similar is called interpolation.
I don't agree with the queen one. That drum line is way too simple to be considered Queen's intellectual property
+Alex S - so thats 9/10 you agree with, not bad. I had to narrow this down from at least 20 steals.
+Will Loomis no I know, most of them are obviously plagiarized, it just doesn't surprise me in the pop music world. Good vid none the less.
+Alex S that version of roar was that an earlier draft or something?
Yea seriously. I have no idea what they're talking about. Queen didn't invent bump bump tap either... It's like these people have only heard ten songs in their entire lives.
Yeah That started with stadium bleachers!
Why isn't this man in jail yet? Even taking away the rape, abuse, and almost killing Kesha (bulimia and anorexia. yes, verbal violence, making her throw up and taking "skinny pills" is considered killing) he still deserves to be locked up for all of this.
+keshaskittens♡ When I was pissed off at Dr. Luke in 2012 for stealing my song there was only a few voices out there complaining about him. Now, especially after this Ke$ha thing people are starting to come forward and there's a lot more awareness about how awful he is.
That's horrible, I'm really sorry about that. I'm so glad people are seeing the truth about him now. He's a disgusting thief..
+Clariece C THE FUCKER KILLED POP MUSIC FOR AN ENTIRE GENERATION! DR LUKE REST IN PISS
I only read the first and last comment on this chain, and I just want to say, when the bikini pics leaked in 2011, he did get harsher, but that's not when he called her a fat fucking refrigerator. When Kesha was doing the scene in the white lingerie in the Die Young music video, Luke made the comment about being a fat fucking refrigerator to the director. Some other people heard, eventually telling Kesha which is when her anorexia really got out of control. He said multiple other things, that she's not talented, that she just got lucky he found her, that she can be replaced by a million other girls, called her names, and assulted her any way he could.
Kesha should just retire already, the world does not need anymore shitty,mediocre crap pretending to be music.
That Jessie j domino one literally sounded like a duet when you put them together. Shooked!!!!!!!!
amy ikr
The song that was supposedly copied sounds nothing like Domino. They just pasted their lyris ove Domino.
This guy must spent his life in court
Soo true peppa pig
thats funny
Jail*
Fun fact, Hold It Against Me samples Kesha's vocals from Blow in the final chorus & Dr Luke didn't properly give Kesha credit because he didn't want to pay Kesha.
However the BIGGEST rip off? hands down would be Katy Perry's entire Teenage Dream album. That whole concept was made by Bonnie McKee & it was going to be her pop debut with Teenage Dream as the lead single, but Dr Luke & the record label gave it to Katy Perry instead.
Where did you get that information ??
Shane Clawson bonnie said it in an interview
Wow I didn't know that. That's dirty as hell 😡
How she still friends with her? That's fucked up.
Jennifer Brigitte yes, she gave that song, and she co-wrote another hits like Roar and This is how we do
Sony finally recognized he was a liability to them and dropped that ass!!
I'm really disgusted by this. You just don't steel other people's work. I really hope he will pay for this. He doesn't deserve his career.
Amélie Desrochers max Martin is better
preachhhh
IF only people also knew Katy Perry stole Aqua' s 'Dr Jones' music video
j w I feel like she is an appropriator of all things and has very few, if any, original ideas.
dr. puke.
Doctor fluke
dr devil
all the original tracks and Dr Lukes sound EXACTLY the same
This guy even ripped off his name from Dr Dre
Tap-in by Swateeie is even worse.
He didn't even change the instrumentation, he just got the main instrumental.
And people wonder why most music sounds all the same, lack of creativity these days. Well here is one solid answer. Personally, I think it is totally okay to sample other artist's music so long as they have given permission and there is credit given. To which DR. Luke doesn't seem to do either of.
That's crazy
Wow, it just comes to show how greedy the music industry is. Also, all these celebrities who know he's doing this and still want to work with him.
Julio Ortega sometimes they don't have a choice who the producer is.
Or blackmailed like Kelly Clarkson
I could hear all the similarities except the britney one I didn't really catch that ...
Any song: *exists*
Dr. Luke: it's free real estate
you can do this with basically any pop song, most write using some reference track in mind
He also stole Kesha's soul.
no....he didn't
@@coconutsciencegirl9232 yup he did
Coconut ScienceGirl92 yes he did.. she wasn’t allowed to sing for 5 years. She was held captive. Do your research
Mark Ivy ok but that’s scary
Why go through all that trouble to hold onto an artist? Definitely smoke there.
So Katy’s “ET” steals the bass from Tatu?
Sampling is one thing but this is straight up plagiarism lmao.
When he ripped of Kelly Clarkson, Donald cat, and kesha stealing the royalties to their music when he had nothing to do with alot of the songs they wrote.
and now in 2022 he’s ripping off Slayyyter and Ayesha Erotica via Kim Petras’ new EP :(
Identical 😮 it's not the singers' fault though 😬
Tsengee S this video is literally about Dr.Luke not the singers
Tsengee S it is a bit of katy's fault tho
Sarah Guimaraes wtf, why?
Sarah Guimaraes Wtf gtfo she has nothing to do with it
Sass_King5 the brave song and roar so calm down man
Dr. Luke is trash, he's over.
WooItsMel umm when was he here
Trixie The Usherette lol the past 15 years of #1 pop hits. Did you not watch the video 🙄
WooItsMel a
What about Max Martin? He created a baby-voiced Britney Spears.
@@tomryann86 hell yeah
“Roar” was written and recorded before “Brave” came out lol
That was said in the video, but Luke never provided proof to back up that statement. So we can’t even claim this to be true
@@LuisGrande oh just stop, you know it’s true
And don't be surprised on the timber one. Pitbul steals tons of music
So who stole? Luke or Pitbull? Moron.
Jazzy Glo girl and he ruins it too.
Dr Luke is genius if he really ripped off of some of this songs. You can't just find first song, rip that off and make a smash. This dude is one of the best producer of the world.
every song playing in radios all around the world today is a sampled song of a sampled song of a sampled song...
And OMG, Queen, seriously, what an original beat :DDD nobody uses it, right. And what about Avril's Sippin On Sunshine, that also sounds like Roar. Funny, ET always sound to me like Michael Jackson's song.
kgzuig
Yeah
That's what my husband (a songwriter) says all of the time.
kgzuig except for Kesha's new music
Yeah but artists can get permission to sample a song in their song.
copyright isnt protected right. those original stuff got spoiled in wrong hands
Apparently he produced Say So by Doja Cat, and now I feel like it stole the guitar beat from some 70s song I never heard, crazy.
Look up “Fiona Coyne”
@Mischell you really defend this dude luke after everything that he did
@@DanielMartinez-xz8nj You can say whatever you want about him but he was musically gifted at the time, ( even now ).
Yep, I think it is taken or at least inspired by "Good Times" by Chic. I heard it yesterday and thought "oh shit, Say So sounds a lot like that song!"
The t.A.T.u and "E.T." comparison doesn't add up
yea if I was gonna do it over I'd replace that one and the Queen one with better examples, sadly there is no shortage of examples
He could have avoided half these by just listing samples like everyone else does today.
how many lawsuits does is take before he goes to jail
How the hell is he still aloud to produce and write music when everything he makes is a rip-off?
Its sampling and its not a crime.
@@nslouka90 he's pretty well known in the industry for stealing beats
@@nslouka90 There's a *HUGE* difference between sampling and stealing. Sampling's #1 rule is crediting artists you sample. Dr Puke is a blatant plagiarist and ruins sampling for everyone else
I'm starting to think Luke isn't a real doctor.
Wow .... this is disgusting
To other people he may be a thief, but for me he is the creator of the sound of my childhood. I'm grateful for his influence in 2010's pop culture. His songs turned into nostalgic bangers for Gen Z, not bad at all..
But he isnt a good person tho
WHY DONT PEOPLE BE CREATIVE AND WRITE THEIR OWN SHIT.TURNING UP TO A PRODUCER WHO JUST HAS BEATS IS LAME AND UNCREATIVE.
ADULT SHARK that's why much of these artists get no acclaim or respect among their peers. Not that awards are everything, but you have to have,some substantive talent of your own to be recognized.
Domino seriously sounds like he Frankenstein'd I Gotta Feeling and Teenage Dream
Kiss & Tell really isn't that close but the rest tho...
I just can't understand how someone could get away with stealing THIS MANY songs!
Why doesn't this musician man just ask people before he uses their work? Maybe they can make something nice together and avoid lawsuits.
he has no creativity what so ever
1 Bang I'm saying? Or atleast do it the legal way. Nothing's wrong with sampling but where is his creativity. Can he develop a beat on his own??
It's called sampling, everybody does it.
@@waiskuxx if it's sampling, why people sue him? LOL
@Zeksteve Ha all these pop producers do it/have done it. Pharrell, Bruno Mars all of them
It pays tribute as well as keeps alive many musical gems that people may forgot about. Think about it as glorified Deejays or in Jamaica "Sound bwoi" or Soundman
Oh... how’d he get away with this?
eye opening. thanks for posting!
+user6789 all of them are definitely fraudulent aside from the Dark Horse one. Who knows who he stole that one from.
Makes me sick to my stomach. Disgusting plagiarism. I hope his legal bills crush his soul.
I can't wait til he goes down and Kesha can have her career back.
It's happening :)
look at keshas yt channel :)
Foundthisonapamppost it sure is and I'm so happy for her :)
Sydney O'Bier bitch where? She is an accomplished singer,songwriter, get over it
Sydney O'Bier she already had a career.
Samples and interpolations are rip offs now?
10, 9, 8 and 6 are pretty awful ripoffs. Most of the others are just similar chord progressions in the same or similar key and tempo. What I consider true plagiarizing or stealing is having a precisely identical hook or melody with exactly the same chord progression, key and bpm.
You can't plagiarize chords. The uploader is a moron.
Clariece C Half of them he even says "No lawsuit was filed". No kidding, there isn't even a tentative basis for one.
Mike Stouffer people also sue over beats. People make a living off of solely creating beats
The Britney Spears song he made also rips off ANOTHER song as well. "If I Said You Have a Beautiful Body (Would You Hold It Against Me)"((hahaha, yes, that's ACTUALLY the name of the song) by the Bellamy Brothers.
They still support him?!!! After all these lawsuits and legal battles, they still support him?
Jaime Madera I know.. he dont deserve his career honestly 😑
Jaime Madera what's sad is, she is standing up for all the artists who have been used and abused as a price for success. She grew up and realized what was happening and learned the hard way. That's That's why so many artists support her.
Alot of people are contractually obligated too sadly
tik tok by Kesha is similar to what song? and Avril Lavigne - I Don't Have To Try is similar to what song?
I agree with you on everything, but i'm still undecided on case 2 and 3; nevertheless, Dr. Luke is clearly a talentless abuser. I can't believe that he stole the entire chorus from The Asphalt, and then proceeded to sue the band. He should be in a slammer. Somebody please lock him up!!!
These are shockingly blatant. I’m a musician and understand there are only so many notes in a scale to put together but these are obvious ripoffs of the soul of what makes the original song interesting. He doesn’t even try to hide it.
Omg no wonder alot of these songs sounds as if I've heard them before.
But wasn't Hold It Against Me written by Bonnie McKee?
He ruined pop music from the late 2000s to about 2014 with these plagiarized, synth-heavy songs with shitty lyrics.
"Co-writing" mostly is a way for the artists to look like true artists and not just interpreter because that's not cool anymore.
sounds like the truth
Besides "Since U Been Gone" and a few others that are best described as guilty pleasures, him and Max Martin both have nearly single-handedly destroyed pop music.
HolographiCat
Truth!
Spencer Whatever sells, he obviously doesn't care about the music
Why doesn’t he just pay for the rights to begin with? Tons of songs are samples from others
The Dark Horse was supposedly settled recently, and it was in favor of Katy. They said that sounds like that cannot be owned.
Stealing music, music credit, and a young girls body without consent is crazy as hell.
A young girl's body. 🤣
Aside from everything that he did to Kesha, the douchiest thing he's done in this video is actually suing the Asphalt. He got caught plagiarizing, and he's the one that gets to sue?
“I don’t have to try” surprised me hahah
Sara bareilles is the greatest artist ever and to see her music stolen its sad.
Kashi Sinha it is the exact same song... The video even plays the fucking mashup of it... Are you deaf?
Ok53 Sunshine It's never ever heard of her so she really can't be the best "in the world"
Ok53 Sunshine greatest artist EVER? That’s a stretch.. and obviously an unpopular opinion or she’d be more successful
@@leahhogan5684 she has major hits obviously you’ve been living under a rock or you’re too young
@@CrustyUgg she writes, produces and does every part of the music making process so that makes her great, obviously it’s his opinion they’re like assholes everyone has one
He never should have been in the music industry. WTF is wrong with everyone at the top (CEOS) that they allowed this?
How are the most obvious cases still "on going" but the slight ripoffs are already won?
It is clear that evil, corrupted, and shrewd people like Dr. Luke will have his way. But It won't be long. Hell is waiting for such people.
shit almost every good song
chanel #5 v
chanel #5 damn I know right
I think a couple of these were a little bit of a stretch but I don't understand why he won't just SITE the source and give the original artists their credit?! Sampling isn't a crime just so it right! Now I feel bad for liking some of these songs!
crazy how he took over DOJA CAT whole career and now still benefitting in the industry. no one will get him out of there unless we work together but everyone won’t do that
I hope doja can find her way out of that 360, not to mention SA accusations, and we'll uncredited artist/copyright infringement
But Doja keeps blowing up even more now with his help it’s sad really.
@@AstaIsAMonster he wasn't involved in her new album and hit song Vegas he just puts him name on shit he had 0 business in.
All of them
Did he just say Sarah Borealis? 6:51
Jorick sarah borealis? At this time of year, in this part of the country, localized entirely within your kitchen?
Jorick dying 😂
I'm not defending Dr Luke but what alot of people overlook is that things like simple drum beats are very difficult try in court like the Queen example, there are probably other songs which used that beat before Queen but Queen filed a lawsuit first.
good job picking the most defensible option out of the 10
Let's not forget the big time rush song "all the windows down" or whatever copying song 2 by blur !!! So obvious
Kiss N Tell wasn't even released.
omg knowing this, I feel pity for the artists who has been victimized by Luke. he sucks
Why the copies are popular than the orginal songs?
I'm just glad we're finally shifting the blame off the pop stars and onto the producers
why do people even agree to work with him
What a joke. No wonder all pop sounds the same, Dr Luke single handedly ruined mainstream pop music and the reputations of so many musicians.
I absolutely love him 😍
I didn't know one direction worked with dr.luke and now I'm mad. And this dude honestly has no type of shame. he copies everything omg
I wanna be like him
He definitely ripped of some. Others are a stretch .
Rowland Buck agreed. Some of these lawsuits are frivolous
Nah. The others are not a stretch. He slowed the beats down or sped them up. They are clearly the same beats
jessie j wrote domino herself...
No. How is he still making music??? Like what?
I WAS SO SHOOKED WHEN SARA BAREILLES' "BRAVE" CAME IN THE LIST-
Kiss n tell is so awesome but I don't see the similarities
Uhm Kesha is the abused case from dr Luke she is the target
Why? Why is he still in the industry?
I actually think that the case of flame against dark horse is stupid. Yes, it sounds the same, but so many songs used this keyboard riff, even before flame!
Do you think it is wrong to copy an Idea from another song because if so, all music is copied from someone else
Rock Me was 100% An homage obviously
TheNraveles yeah it was. Hes still trash tho
oh no!
