– “All-American Bitch,” a song off Olivia Rodrigo’s newest album GUTS, is drawing comparisons to a 2007 Miley Cyrus song, “Start All Over”<\/p>\n
– Fans allege that both choruses begin with a similar cadence, as both Rodrigo and Cyrus drag out the word \u201cforget\u201d over a driving guitar beat.<\/p>\n
– Rodrigo\u2019s past issues with sampling started out similarly, with fans posting mashups of her songs with other artists\u2019 hits. After the release of her debut album SOUR in 2021, two songs were given retroactive writing and production credits, with Rodrigo losing 50% in publishing royalties on both singles<\/b>.<\/p>\n
– Because of comparisons between her song \u201cDeja Vu\u201d and Taylor Swift\u2019s \u201cCruel Summer,\u201d Rodrigo gave up half its royalties to Swift, Jack Antonoff, and Annie Clark. And after mashups of \u201cGood 4 U\u201d and Paramore\u2019s \u201cMisery Business\u201d went viral, band members Hayley Williams and Josh Farro were given writing credits and 50% of the song\u2019s royalties as well.<\/p>\n
– The controversy is rumored to have caused a fallout between Rodrigo and Swift in particular, who used to be incredibly close but haven\u2019t spoken much about each other recent years. Fans have theorized that Rodrigo’s song “The Grudge” is written about this rift.<\/p>\n
