Aug 25, 2021That being said there's literally nothing wrong if she credits them.
Gambino writing Redbone and crediting Bootsy Collins afterwards bc the song sounds a lot like one of his songs shouldn't be condemned. Radiohead did the same thing with Creep.
Sometimes new artists don't realize how much they're borrowing and reaching out and letting the right people get credit is the classy move, so hopefully that happened here.

BRAVEI can already smell the “YOU CANT OWN CHORDS” cop out from a mile away due to people’s only frame of reference for music theory related to crediting disputes being chords as if chords are the only component of music composition
But the chorus in Good 4 U has not only the same chords but nearly identical: harmonic rhythm, tempo, melodic contour, vocal performance, vocal range, groove, subgenre, sound, and is only one semitone up from Misery Business - all simultaneously
So yes, Paramore and Hayley Williams should absolutely get a credit on this song

Shabazz99950% of royalties? that's ridiculous
Assuming it’s just publishing royalties which means it’s just 50% of a pretty small part of royalties not 50% of everything the song makes

She’s getting 50% of publishing royalties which are the parts under performance and mechanical. These are the parts that directly relate to the songwriting of the song which is why it’s such a large share - obviously a lot of the songwriting credit goes to her rather than Olivia rodrigo
So she basically gets 50% of around 13% so more like 6% of the songs total revenue not 50%

She’s eating into the part of the revenue that Orod actually sees a profit from so, lmao
The labels gonna get their slice regardless

Depends on her deal but she definitely gets a portion of the profits of recording income too usually like 20% of itAnd to be honest I really could care less if Olivia rodrigo gets less money from this song

She’s a multi millionaire at age 18 idgafI guess but if her randomly blowing up out of nowhere whilst simultaneously trying to eat off legends don’t rub you the wrong way ion know what will
Aug 25, 2021crushedvelvetImma keep it a buck I just listened to the song for the first time ever and the s*** was blatant to the point I thought it was a sample and would’ve expected Paramore to already be getting a bag from this…

Wym that’s the opposite argument to what you were just saying
I think Hayley Williams should get paid for it
Part of the reason I don’t care that much about Olivia rodrigos percentages is because she would be nowhere without the massive corporate backing she’s gotten this year and will undoubtedly continue to get
