Rihanna Rips Off New
Order?

.
(antiMusic) Blogs are burning up with speculation
that one of Rihanna's songs is nothing but a blatant rip off a New Order
hit. A YouTuber caught the similarities in the songs and decided that mash-up
evidence was in order so he produced a pretty amazing mix of the two songs/videos.
While this shouldn't be very surprising
to anyone given the derivative and unoriginal nature of modern R&B
these days, one person going by the name of usernamemyarse on YouTube decided
that video proof was needed and put together Rihanna's "Shut up and Dance"
with the New Order hit "Blue Monday" to show people how much of rip off
it appears to be.
The main part of the video is the New Order
song playing over Rihanna's video with parts of the her song synching perfectly
with "Blue Monday". What happened to the R&B tradition in the modern
age? It appears to be just as bad as almost every other area of entertainment
from movies to TV, with inferior copies of the original being presented
as something new. - But
judge for yourself.
