Ariana Grande has been slammed with a law suit by songwriter Alex Greggs. Greggs claims that Ariana’s “One Last Time” single was embodied after the Skye Stevens’ 2012 single he wrote titled “Takes All Night.”
In documents obtained by E! News, Greggs alleges that “One Last Time” and “Takes All Night” bear similarities “so striking that it is highly likely the works were not created independently of one another,” noting the chorus and lyrics of Grande’s version as a primary catalyst for the legal action.
Greggs is seeking $150,000 per infringement. Additionally, David Guetta (who wrote “One Last Time”), Rami Yacoub, Carl Falk, Universal Music Group and Republic Records among others are noted in the lawsuit.
This isn’t the first time that 23-year-old Ariana has faced legal trouble over her music. In 2013, the singer was sued for a phrase in “The Way” that Minder Music claimed was a replica from a line in a 1972 disco track called “Troglodyte.”
