Did YG plagiarize again? Hip hop legends J.J. Fad accuse BABYMONSTER's HOT SAUCE of using Supersonic melody without permission
YG Entertainment is once again in hot water - this time for allegedly using a legendary American hip hop track without permission. Iconic rap group J.J. Fad has publicly called out the K-pop giant for lifting elements of their groundbreaking 1988 hit Supersonic in BABYMONSTER's new song HOT SAUCE - and doing so without clearance, credit, or compensation. This isn't unfamiliar territory for YG Entertainment, which has faced repeated criticism over the years for its controversial handling of Black cultural influences. From fashion to music, the label has often walked a fine line between homage and appropriation. Now, with J.J. Fad's accusation, that line may have been crossed once again. J.J. Fad goes public on TikTok The trio, hailed as pioneers in old-school hip hop, posted a viral TikTok in which they compared HOT SAUCE to Supersonic and pointed out the glaring similarities. Their frustration was clear. Well well well "We definitely are flattered that @babymonster yg did an interpolation of Supersonic. The problem is they never asked for permission to use it, or paid for the usage! Better reach out soon or…" the group wrote on their official TikTok account. What is Interpolation and why it isn't a loophole Interpolation - re-recording parts of an existing melody instead of sampling - still requires permission from the original rights holders. While K-pop frequently employs this technique, as seen in BLACKPINK's Pink Venom (which nods to Rihanna) or IVE's After LIKE (inspired by Donna Summer), that doesn't exempt labels from legal and ethical obligations. Fans demand accountability The silence from YG Entertainment has only added fuel to the fire. Fans and industry professionals alike are calling out the company for its recurring pattern of using Black artistry without acknowledgment. expected from the company famous for creating niggaboos YG has a reputation of stealing from black culture and they require at least one artist from each of their groups to either say the nword or imitate black ppl to get into the company so this isn't much of a surprise. Others echoed similar sentiments, demanding accountability and transparency from one of K-pop's biggest powerhouses. more Korean companies stealing from black artists and no one is doing shit about it YG remains silent - for now So far, the agency has not issued any comment on the accusations. Whether they choose to resolve the matter quietly behind the scenes or face the music publicly remains to be seen - but one thing is clear: J.J. Fad and their supporters won't stay silent.

Bad news for Urvashi Rautela as she lost jewellery worth Rs 70 lakhs from..., accuses...
Bad news for Urvashi Rautela, as she lost jewellery worth Rs 70 lakhs from..., accuses... In an industry where fame is often associated with wealth. Public figures often walk a tightrope between luxury and sensitivity. But among the many actors that own some prized possessions, there is one actress who has often made headlines for her bold fashion statements and extravagant lifestyle, but in recent months, it's not her films or outfits that have created a buzz; rather, it's her back-to-back luxury mishaps and a controversial comment during a sensitive time that have brought her under sharp public scrutiny. Urvashi Rautela Luxury Mishap A few months ago, Urvashi Rautela was creating a buzz on social media for her insensitive comment during the promotion of her film at the start of 2025. While fans and the industry were dealing with the shocking stabbing of actor Saif Ali Khan, she seemed detached and overly focused on flaunting her expensive gifts. During an interview with ANI, she was asked to share her views on the incident, but instead of showing some sympathy or concern, she took away from the magnanimity of the situation. She said: 'It is very unfortunate. Now, Daaku Maharaaj has crossed Rs. 105 crore at the box office, and my mother gifted me this diamond-studded Rolex. In contrast, my father gifted me this mini watch on my finger, but we don't feel confident wearing it outside openly. There is this insecurity that anybody can attack us. Whatever happened was very unfortunate.' The internet didn't take kindly to her words, accusing her of being out of touch with reality and insensitive to the gravity of the situation. This wasn't the only time she made headlines for her luxurious life. In 2023, Urvashi shocked social media by announcing that she had lost her 24-carat real gold iPhone at the Narendra Modi Stadium during a World Cup match. She posted: 'Lost my 24-carat real gold iPhone at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad! If anyone comes across it, please help. Contact me ASAP.' Then, in 2025, during her trip to London for the Wimbledon Tennis Tournament, there was another headline. She claimed that her Christian Dior brown baggage, reportedly containing jewellery worth ₹70 lakh, was stolen at London's Gatwick Airport. She wrote: 'As a Platinum Emirates Member and a global artist attending Wimbledon, I am deeply disheartened to report that our Christian Dior brown baggage was stolen from the baggage belt at London Gatwick Airport, following our Emirates flight from Mumbai.' While Urvashi's fans sympathized with her losses, some also questioned her repeated emphasis on luxury, especially during times of public grief or unrest.

‘Code of Silence' review: A gripping police procedural about a gutsy lip-reader
When the lead character of Code of Silence, who is hearing impaired, is asked why she is risking her life to be a police informant, she replies that she has always been underestimated. The actor who plays Alison, Rose Ayling-Ellis, is hearing impaired too, not just bringing veracity to her performance but also proving through career triumphs in the recent past that she cannot be underestimated. Alison lives with her deaf mother (Fifi Garfield), doing low-level jobs to make ends meet. One of her jobs is at a police canteen. One day, when the assigned experts are absent, she is asked to lip-read a conversation between members of a violent gang. Alison does such a brilliant job, that the cops in charge of the case – James (Andrew Buchan) and Ashleigh (Charlotte Ritchie) – come to depend on her for more assignments. For Alison, it is a thrill because, for once, somebody is giving her a chance to do something important. She is not expected to take risks. But once she gets involved in the case, she is unstoppable. She starts working in a pub owned by a particularly nasty gangster, Braden (Joe Absolom), who is planning a robbery. She also embarks on a friendship with a new member of the gang, Liam (Kieron Moore). An orphan brought up in foster care, Liam is a lost, lonely soul, who falls in love with Alison, and she with him. Which, of course, complicates things, Code of Silence, created and written by Catherine Moulton and directed by Chanya Button and Diarmuid Goggins, is out on Lionsgate Play. The six-episode series is more than just an effective police procedural. It stands up for the disabled without waving flags or resorting to melodrama. Alison's deafness adds an edge to many scenes, like the one where she secretly records a meeting of Braden's gang and makes viewers hold their breaths. Unlike most American cop shows, Code of Silence does not have a frenzied pace or profanity and hardly any violence. The commitment of the cops to the case – which involves a wealthy Indian family – is given equal weightage to the tender romance between Alison and Liam. There's a charming innocence to Alison's delight at going on a date to a pub or experiencing the luxury of a five-star hotel. Her desire to be like everyone else probably prompts her break-up with a nice hearing-impaired man (Rolf Choutan). The show subtly conveys what life is like for a deaf person. Alison's mother has trouble finding employment. Alison is sacked from a restaurant for getting a customer's order wrong. Her courage and ambition do not keep away the frustrations of her condition. She says, 'Really fed up with trying to prove myself.' Alison lip-reads, using common sense and observation to make sense of what is being said. Accordingly, the subtitles appear blurred at first and then the letters shift around to make coherent sentences. Alison speaks clearly but mispronounces a few words and drops some vowels. An actor with meticulous coaching probably could not have captured the nuances of a deaf person's speech or gestures. Kieren Moore as Liam and Andrew Buchan as the avuncular cop give sensitive performances. But obviously, it is Rose Ayling-Ellis's show all the way, and she plays Alison with a fierce determination.
