On July 4, Gabriel Moses, the director of Travis Scott’s “FE!N” music video, publicly accused BLACKPINK’s Lisa of copying elements from his work for her “Rockstar” music video, thereby sparking plagiarism allegations against BLACKPINK’s Lisa.
Moses highlighted strong similarities between the two videos, which led to a wave of backlash and online harassment directed at him. Fans and netizens are eagerly awaiting a response from Lisa’s management team concerning the plagiarism allegations against BLACKPINK’s Lisa.
gabriel moses (travis scott’s videographer) who shot the fein mv which lisa and her team blatantly copied, is rightfully mad since he (and the entire team) didn’t get any credits. this is honestly sick, she keeps copying black artists and styles but never gives them any credit. pic.twitter.com/KHtM3lJ7bc

These kinds of sets or scenes are not invented by Travis Scott. Here's a video explaining Lisa's scenes, which means this type of scenes has been here for a long time https://t.co/fTm6gQmvdI pic.twitter.com/QyF11YrmZg

In defense of Lisa, many fans argued that the concept Moses claimed was copied had been seen in various other music videos, suggesting that the plagiarism allegations against BLACKPINK’s Lisa could simply be a case of paying homage rather than outright copying.
Music videos often draw inspiration from one another, and this might be an example of such creative influence. However, Moses complicated the situation further on July 5 by adding a new layer to the plagiarism allegations against BLACKPINK’s Lisa.

In a tweet, Moses quoted another user who pointed out the “Travis Scott influence” seen in Lisa’s “Rockstar” music video. He alleged that Lisa’s team had initially reached out to his video editor to work on “Rockstar” and had used “FE!N” as a reference.
According to Moses, the editor declined, but Lisa’s team allegedly proceeded with their plans regardless, thereby intensifying the plagiarism allegations against BLACKPINK’s Lisa.
Despite these serious claims, as of now, Lisa’s team has not issued any public response or statement regarding the plagiarism allegations. The situation remains tense, with many fans and observers closely monitoring for any updates or clarifications about the plagiarism allegations against BLACKPINK’s Lisa.
They asked my editor to work on this and mentioned Fein as a reference. My editor declined, but they went ahead and did it anyway. Have a great day!
