Bad news for will.i.am, who is said to have stolen a track from house producers Mat Zo and Arty. "Let's Go," the will.i.am song in question, features Chris Brown and happens to share the same name as a song by house producer Calvin Harris (that one features Ne-Yo, so the rubric is essentially identical).
It also sounds extremely similar to "Rebound," a dance track produced by Zo and Arty. (Take a listen to the two songs at the bottom of this article.) In a series of tweets, Arty explained that no one had approached Anjunabeats, the trance label run by massive dance trio Above & Beyond, to clear the song. HuffPost has reached out to will.i.am's label for comment and will update this post if additional information becomes available.
In any case, take Google's word for it.
