Does Karol G copy Rosalía? The keys to the confrontation between the two music divas

Controversy between the two great divas of Spanish music. The fans of Rosalía They have accused (again) Karol G to copy the Catalan singer after the release of her song ‘If I had met you before‘ for his similar to ‘Desphá’. The reality is that this is not the first time that there has been talk of possible plagiarism from the interpreter of ‘Tusa’ to the creator of ‘Motomami’. Many already claim that the two stars have declared war on each other and some understand the latest Instagram posts by the one from Sant Esteve Sesrovires as a possible response to the Colombian. Is there really a rivalry between them or are people trying to pit two talented women against each other once again?

Social media users have gone back as far as 2019 to compile the many moments in which the Colombian was supposedly inspired by the Catalan. From their nails, hairstyles and outfits, to the poses, through the music videos and songs..

Some ‘copies’

Specifically, one of the videos in which fans have found the most references is ‘S91‘ by Karol G, which seems quite inspired by Rosalía’s previous works. Also the moment when the ‘motomami’ decided dye your hair red and the ‘bug’ did the same a few days later. Or when the Catalan confirmed that she did her nails in Dvine Nails and, during his stay in Spain, that of Medellín went to the same center to get a manicure (In the song ‘Auto cuture’ Rosalía sings “Dvine’s nails have already been copied.”). Another of the songs that fans believe Rosalía dedicates to Karol G is ‘A palé’ in which she recites “everything I invent is thrashed out on me.”

Another of the clear reasons for copying that his followers have found is the way of writing their names. While Rosalía from the beginning in the industry chose to put her name in capital letters, Karol G used lowercase letters until she also decided to use this font for her latest releases. The two have also had their own FC Barcelona t-shirt (although the reality is that this is the result of the team’s collaboration with Spotify).

A controversial meringue

The last big reason that has made fans rekindle the war between the two artists has been the release of ‘If I had met you before‘, by Karol G, a merengue reminiscent of Rosalía’s ‘Despechá’, of the same genre, released in the summer of 2022. At that time, the Sant Esteve Sesrovires native confirmed that she had been inspired by the music of three Dominican artists to compose it: Fefita la Grande, Omega and Juan Luis Guerra.

The issue is not similar to that of the Catalan only in the rhythm (both songs are merengues, so it is not surprising), but also in the summer aesthetic of the video clip. However, the lyrics of the two songs have nothing to do with each other. While the ‘motomami’ song talks about a person who is upset after ending their relationship, the ‘bug’ wonders “what would have happened” in a forbidden love.

Be that as it may, the controversy is served. After these latest comments from the followers of both who confront them directly, Rosalía has added more fuel to the fire with her latest Instagram publication. The singer has shared a photograph in which does the comb along with the song ‘Desphá’. Could it be a hint for Karol G?

Only they know what their relationship is really like. With or without conflict, both are successful women in the music world: Rosalía is the most successful Spanish singer of recent years and Karol G, who will perform for four consecutive nights at the Santiago Bernabéu, has become one of the most relevant women in urban music.
