Naira Marley’s new signee Lyta has been accused of music video plagiarism by South Korean K-pop fans.

K-pop fans took to social media to decry the uncanny similarities between Nigerian singer’s new video for the song “Hold Me Down” And “Just Right” by South Korean K-pop boy band GOT7.

A Twitter fan page of GOT7 @GOT7_JYP noted the similarity between both videos.

“Please take legal action on this. We do not accept plagiarism”, they tweeted and tagged the boy band official Twitter account.

Along with their tweet, the fan page shared a video in which both music videos were placed together.

Lyta’s “Hold Me Down” music video was released yesterday via Naira Marley’s YouTube account.

Reacting to the accusation, Naira Marley on his Twitter page said:

“Lyta they’re dragging ur hair in Asia right now���� Lyta’s not the video director mf. #ApologiseLyta �����������”

Lyta, whose birth name is Lawal Opeyemi Raimi, is a Nigerian singer and songwriter. He signed a record deal with YBNL Nation in 2018 but left the label in May 2019. He recently signed a record deal with Naira Marley’s Malian Records.
