Ariana Grande accused of ripping off Soulja Boy, Princess Nokia and 2 Chainz on 7 Rings 🥴
Upon the release of her new single, some fans accused Ariana Grande of ripping off Soulja Boy's flow from his song Pretty Boy Swag, while others suggested the song's video stole from 2 Chainz's 'pink trap house' aesthetic. Rapper Princess Nokia later joined the fray, accusing Grande of stealing her flow from the song Mine. Nokia was then accused of ripping off the artist Kali Uchis.

Girl, nothing about this is original or unique. It’s a common trap flow, common flex lyrics. I promise you no one intentionally “copied” you. Lmao step up your pen game

Bless Nokia but that flow wasn't new when she used it either.

I think the Nokia argument is more about the hair lyric/content than the flow

"mine" sound like "spend it." "spend it" sound like flockaveli. i'm not taking a hard stance because i get that there's a deeper complaint about this rollout that i want to hear more about. but in the case of this song, it's pretty rich to claim complete ownership of the concept.

I think ppl's concern here is specific. less about the sonic origins of "spend it"/"mine" & more about the context of Ariana being white & rapping about buying hair and Princess Nokia rapping about buying hair and the policing of+fixation with black and brown image by white ppl
