According to The Guardian, the distribution of the star’s 2015 song “Million Years Ago” was banned. This decision was made by a Brazilian court. Composer Toninho Geraes claims that Adele copied the music of the samba “Mulheres”, which he recorded in 1995.
A judge in Rio de Janeiro ruled that the track “Million Years Ago” should be removed from streaming services worldwide. Brazilian branches of Sony and Universal Music Group will face a fine of 823 thousand rubles “in case of non-compliance with the requirements.” However, music companies may appeal the ban.
In addition, the composer demands 16 million rubles from Adele as moral compensation. He also wants the rights to his song.
Let’s remember that Adele emotionally completed her last show at the end of November. Read about it here.
