“Our legal team will work,” wrote Evandro Fióti, Emicida’s brother; Fans point out that there are conceptual similarities. Other side: Juliette and Duda Beat were contacted and had no comment
The new song by Juliet with Duda Beat, Yellow magicit was released on Tuesday evening, the 17th, and immediately became the subject of controversy on social media, even accused of plagiarism.
The similarity of the single with Yellow, album and audiovisual project by Murderous, it became a topic overnight. Evandro Fióti, creative partner and brother of the rapper, endorsed the accusations. “It took us 12 years to win a Grammy. And the work that won us a Grammy was simply stolen conceptually,” he said.
OR Estadao He reached out to Juliette and Duda Beat and received no response until this note was published. The space remains open.
“Do you know about appropriation and everything we talk about ethics?”, wrote Fióti. “So there is very little in this market. Without criticizing the artists, who I even admire. But our legal team will work.”
Evandro further explained that Juliette and Duda’s song Beat was launched as the brand’s campaign. This Wednesday, the 18th, she showed on her social networks that it was an advertisement for the Bauducco.
Wanted by State, the brand also did not respond. The space remains open.
What compliments for “Originality” and “Diversity” if this wasn’t the deal, what would it be?

“This brand negotiated with us,” Fióti said on air. “We didn’t reach an agreement, due to schedule, deadline and financial issues. The budget they had didn’t justify the delivery we needed to make.”
For now there is no advertising signage in the artists’ publications.
Understand the similarities
Fans of Murderous stressed that the plagiarism would be conceptual and visual.
Similarities in the meaning of the lyrics have been pointed out, which play on the words “yellow” and “I love them“, as was done in the rapper’s work.

Furthermore, similar typography and even stained glass in the background was used, as was adopted in Emicida’s shows for the album.
Just don’t see anyone who doesn’t want to
Do you know what further indicates that it was intentional?
Apparently this song is an ad for a brand that tried to shut down Emicida and it didn’t happen and then right after they came out with this?
Seriously guys, what a lack of respect… pic.twitter.com/g3qLkeHy6H
