BLACKPINK’s Lisa “Hits Back” At Past Plagiarism Allegations With New Release
BLACKPINK‘s Lisa has “hit back” at previous plagiarism claims ahead of her new release.
When Lisa first released her video for “ROCKSTAR,” it was hit with plagiarism claims by the director of Travis Scott‘s music video.

When these accusations were spread, netizens pointed out that the “FE!N” music video wasn’t the only time this sort of shot was used. In particular, many pointed out that Kendrick Lamar‘s video for the track “HUMBLE.”
It's funny because this type of editing in music videos is very common, Travis was not the first nor the only one to do it, in fact Kendrick Lamar also has this type of scenes, so your selective interpretation trick is not fooling anyone. pic.twitter.com/6SRdedkcgj https://t.co/vM32IK8uM2

Lisa is set to release a new song called “NEW WOMAN” with Rosalía, and when information was released, netizens found that the video was going to be directed by Dave Meyer, the person behind the “Humble” video.
Dave Meyer, the original creator of Kendrick Lamar's 'Humble' effect, directed LISA’s next song 'NEW WOMAN' feat Rosalía. Prior to this news, some netizens claimed plagiarism against LISA’s team for utilizing a similar effect on 'ROCKSTAR'.
