Hello, I'm Mplify.
I would like to inform you of my position on the recent Olivia Marsh-related issue.
Olivia Marsh released her first album 'Meanwhile' on the 13th. Since its release, there has been a controversy that 'Backseat' is similar to Isaac Dunbar's 'Onion Boy' among the double title tracks on the album.
We compared the two songs ourselves and interpreted Isaac Dunbar's argument as reasonable. As a result, we have reached a smooth agreement with Isaac Dunbar, and we are conducting all necessary tasks such as discussing the shares of the composition and registering credits so that the rights of the original author can be guaranteed.
This is a reflection of our shared commitment to creativity and fair artistic practice. We will continue to work on the basis of transparency and respect for all creators.
Using this as a lesson, we will check the internal system and closely look at it to prevent such a situation from happening again in the future. Once again, I bow down to Isaac Dunbar and sincerely apologize to the fans who must have been disappointed by this incident.
