You can tell what’s in a woman’s character by the way she steals other women’s men, I mean by the way she treats others. Alicia Keys apparently has no respect for the artistic property of others because — as Alcove explains in this video — she has pilfered entire melodies from old school artists in the past without giving proper credit.

Unlike lyrics and audio samples (loops, beats, etc.), which are protected under the copyright law, melodies (humming and harmonizing) are not protected. We already know by her sneaky ways that AK is not an honest, right-minded woman. So we’re not surprised to hear that she has ripped off yet another melody — this time from the great Loleatta Holloway for Whitney Houston’s new single “Million Dollar Bill” which AK wrote.

Thanks to loyal reader Oneal for the tip!
