I was surfing on youtube, and found this. If you listen to Minwoo's latest album, doesn't it reminds you of someone else album?
Listen for yourself.

This song sounds very similar to Justin Timberlake and Timberland's SexyBack. Used the same beat.

Update: I found the description at YesAsia.com. I don't see Timberland on the list. For those that have the cd, where did it say M worked with Timberland on this???

It took Lee Min Woo over a year to come up with his new album, but now the long wait is over. In his element once more, he not only held a successful solo concert in Japan recently, he also established his own company, M Rising Entertainment. As for his new album, he has spared no efforts and got directly involved in the songwriting work for 9 of the 12 featured tracks. To realize his latest ambitious work, he collaborated with such talented musicians as Drunken Tiger's Tiger JK, Yoon Mi Rae, and Epik High's Tablo. This time's principal song is Stomp, which highlights his unique urban hip hop style. Fans can look forward to a special album blending urban hip-hop, R&B, and mainstream pop sounds. All listeners should be in for a musical joyride when they reach out to Explore M.

Korean artist Minwoo's latest album



Justin Timberlake's latest album

[smile-jw]

I noticed it the minute I heard it.
Love both artists though.

[h0ney]

it doesnt even sound like one song to me.. sounds like someone just put the songs together cos the beats didnt flow smoothly..
didnt like the song.. sounded messy

[juhee]

eh similar... but i thought that M was working with timbaland on the song?
and if he was... then it kinda makes sense why they both sound similar..
timbaland's beats almost all sound the same....

both are eh to me anyway

[HELLnawITSc]

EFFE M. He is hellllla annoying. He is an embarassment.
And his fans will try to defend him by saying his version sounds better, but that is besides the point. ANYONE can improve something that is already out there...

[ling_ling]

well loads of asian celebs use similar beats to the american celebs...hyori lee does it all the time....

[ladyvi]

wow that song is in fact all over the place...

[Angel88]

As long as it sounds nice and it's not a 100% copy I don't see what the big deal is
Since he's working with Timbaland, that might explain why the beat is almost the same..

[LucasBunny]

Well if he worked with Timberland then its reasonable

if not then it's uh oh!

I hate SexyBack anyways
JT is wack and Minwoo is sexier

...but if Minwoo copied then
that's not a good thing..cuz OMG the songs sound too much alike

And his fans will try to defend him by saying his version sounds better, but that is besides the point. ANYONE can improve something that is already out there...

I agree

[EverCool]

I been noticed that. Minwoo stole that beat.

[nelly]

He's working with Timbaland, do you even know that? Timbaland pretty much has the same beats so I guess it's okay.

[Kennedy]

I like it... What's the big deal?

And 'sides, you can so totally tell that he was working with Timbaland.
Also, Timbaland made the singles he produced top the charts or something like that.

[kwok]

Is this like a mix or something? It doesn't sound smooth to me.

[Face]

Even if he was working with Timberland...and Timberland's records are usually similar in different aspects. This one in particular, sounds like various tracks were cut and mixed. Haha, parts of Justin's original is heard in it's original form clips...er. I'd like to see evidence that this was a collab project..otherwise, it's another one of those copycats.

[LucasBunny]

If it was done without permission

then yeh it's a huge deal

[precious4e]

haha doesn't matter to me since I find both songs annoying (no offense to fans)

I'm not surprised by "sampling" anymore....

[Madoki]

minwoo also stole some choreography from that one step movie. stomp the yard. haha i saw it and was like o.o

[swtanjel012]

ye i totally agree with Madoki. his dance and costume reminded me of stomp the yard

[kfreak]

the beginning souns like it O_____o
and i don't like sexy back...
so doesn't matter to me..
hope minwoo doesn't get sue..

[lucky*13]

Everyone is copying/stealing each other's beats and all the stuff now.
So I am not suprised. Like Energy, that Chinese group, they have a remake version of DBSK's "One", and nothing was mention about DBSK on their CD.
Isn't that call stealing. I think people should just get over it if Justin doesn't do anything.
Because Justin can just sue anytime.
