Singer Ariana Grande attends the Billboard Women In Music 2018 on December 06, 2018 in New York City.LOS ANGELES - Ariana Grande and more than a half-dozen songwriters were sued for copyright infringement on Thursday by a hip hop artist who says the pop star's 2019 Grammy-nominated single"7 Rings" was plagiarized from a song he recorded two years earlier.
"Indeed any comparative analysis of the beat, lyrics, hook, rhythmic structure, metrical placement and narrative context, by musicology experts or everyday listeners alike, demonstrates clearly and convincingly that '7 Rings' copied 'I Got It,' Stone's attorneys said in the court papers. The 26-year-old superstar's record label, Republic Records, also could not be reached for comment on Thursday afternoon.
Stone says in his lawsuit that he recorded"I Got It" in New York in January 2017 and that summer pitched the song to executives with Universal Music Group, including Thomas Brown, who has worked with Grande on all five of her albums.
Why sued & not arrested 😳🤔🤔

One ring was enough why steal 7 of them
