E-TRIBE acknowledges similarities between Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" & SNSD's "Be Happy"

A plagiarism controversy is brewing online between Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" and SNSD's "Be Happy." Recently, a YouTube video comparing the two songs surfaced, leading to accusations of how Lady Gaga was plagiarizing SNSD. "Born This Way" is a track from Lady Gaga's February release, while "Be Happy" is a 2010 track from SNSD's second album. The responses from netizens have been largely divided. Some wrote, "It sounds like it was plagiarized," and "No wonder 'Born This Way' sounded so familiar." Others retorted, "Lady Gaga composes her own songs.�This was composed by her, and it's not the same at all," and "It might just be coincidence." E-TRIBE, the composer behind "Be Happy," responded to the claims through Newsen on March 11th and stated, "Someone this morning told me that there were reports of Lady Gaga plagiarizing SNSD's 'Be Happy.'�I listened, and I do feel that there are similarities.�The way the song flows and the arrangements are, honestly, the same. I am currently working to get in contact with Lady Gaga's publishing label to find further information." Check it out for yourself: Source + Photos: JoongAng, Newsen via Naver
