Tory Lanez Called Out By George Michael's Estate For Allegedly Ripping Off 'Careless Whisper'

March 14, 2022

Tory Lanez is once again in trouble. The Canadian crooner, who’s currently enveloped in a foreclosure lawsuit and a felony assault case, is now being accused of plagiarism by the family of the late pop star George Michael.

George Michael’s estate accused Lanez of ripping off the singer’s legendary hit “Careless Whisper” for his song “Enchanted Waterfall,” the opener to his 2021 eighties-inspired album Alone At Prom. In a statement shared by Variety, the estate said they’d denied Lanez the right to use the song for his album when his team asked in June of 2021, but he apparently incorporated an unauthorized sample of the track anyway.

Check out both “Careless Whisper” and “Enchanted Waterfall” below.
