''10,000 Hours' is not just substantially similar to 'First Time,'' the complaint also read. 'The similarities are so striking that '10,000 Hours' simply cannot have been independently created.'
,"10,000 hours" -- are being sued for copyright infringement over their Grammy-winning single.
In a complaint filed in a Los Angeles federal court, a company called Melomega is accusing the singers of copying the"core portion" of their song from a single released in 2014 called"The First Time Baby Is a Holiday." "Defendants' theft is impudently bold," their compliant states."One need only listen to 'First Time' and the infringing '10,000 Hours' to discern the unmistakable similarities between the songs." In the complaint, Melomega also presented a report from musicologist Dr. Alexander Stewart, who, according to the suit, analyzed the two singles and came to the"universal and ineluctable conclusion that Defendants stole Plaintiff's song.
"'10,000 Hours' is not just substantially similar to 'First Time,'" the complaint also read."Defendants copied, in minute detail, the most important, core portion of plaintiff's song, which includes the chorus, verse and hook. The similarities are so striking that '10,000 Hours' simply cannot have been independently created."
