Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars have been accused by Serbian singer Viktorija, real name Snezana Miskovic, who claims their hit single "Uptown Funk" is a rip off of her 1984 single "Ulice Mracne Nisu Za Devojke," which translates as "Dark Streets Are Not For Girls."
While she says that she has yet to decide whether or not she will file an official lawsuit, she just wants to have her contributions to the hit song attributed and credited.
"Their song 'Uptown Funk' contains 80 per cent of my tracks. How much of it are you allowed to take as inspiration for your song?" Miskovic told the Daily Star newspaper. "I'm in no hurry to sue them, these processes take a long time, and my life and career does not depend on lawsuits. For these lawsuits, there should be a lot of money, the lawyers are working on a percentage. If I still decide to sue them and I win, I have to figure out what to do with that money."
She added that she believes "Uptown Funk" to be at least "80 percent" hers.
