Stella Lefty Accused Of Copying A Third Hit Song

Stella Lefty, the daughter of Groupon co-founder Jeffry Lefkofsky, is currently under fire for copying elements from other popular songs. Her latest hit "Boston," which currently holds the second spot on the American charts, bears a striking resemblance to Noah Kahan's "Stick Season," a song that gained immense popularity in 2022.

Lefty initially claimed she was not influenced by Kahan's work when she wrote "Boston," but the similarity is too striking to ignore. She has even posted numerous covers of "Stick Season" on her social media, often dedicating them to Kahan. However, the similarities between the two songs are undeniable. Moreover, Lefty's debut album, "Long Way Home," has been criticized for copying the hit "There's Your Trouble" by the Dixie Chicks, a song that was a massive hit in 1998 and won a Grammy.

While Atlantic Records attributed the omission of songwriters Tia Sillers and Mark Selby's credits to a "streaming platform error," the same accusation has now been leveled at Lefty for her track "Why Wouldn't We," which is virtually identical to Blake Shelton's "I'll Name The Dogs." This song, which reached number one on the Country Airplay chart in 2017, features a near-identical chorus to Lefty's track.

The similarity is so striking that it gives a new perspective on Shelton's songwriting talent. At this point, it seems like Lefty is intentionally copying successful songs to piggyback on their popularity.
