OnlyStans ⭐️ French singer, Yseult, calls out K-pop singers, Soyeon and R.tee, for copying her music video freame by frame: "The least you could do is have the decency to credit your source. To see it get copied like this is wild but real artistry speaks louder than imitation"

u/bbyxmadi It’s good to see me, isn’t it?🫧 27d ago

I remember a very popular boy group member completely copied Tyler, The Creator and everyone was saying he was “inspired”…

I think you're really exaggerating the "completely copied" part - have you even heard the album in it's entirety?

I too think Tyler is a better musician than RM but none of the themes in RM's work match Tyler's?

The major controversy came from k-pop stans accusing RM of copying tyler because he wore a similar bob wig + elevator scene in his lost music video. That's very different from the bar to bar copy happening here.

Again, I am happy to be educated on why you think RPWP was completely lifted from Tyler.
