The music video for the song "Sirun jan" by Armenian performer Gor Yepremyan, which is a blatant plagiarism of the Azerbaijani composer Bahram Nasibov's work "Karabakh," has been removed from YouTube and other music platforms.
According to Report, which cites the Intellectual Property Agency, with their support and the technical assistance of the Public Association "Digital and Audiovisual Broadcasting Industry," the song was removed from YouTube and other digital music platforms such as Youtube Music, Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and Deezer by the distribution company CD BABY, following a complaint by Adil Nasibov, the heir of composer B. Nasibov, to the YouTube administration due to copyright infringement.
Interestingly, this is not the first instance of Armenian plagiarism of Azerbaijani music. In 2021, another Armenian singer, Arutyun Pambukjyan, had his song "Aghji jan" removed from Youtube due to its similarity to Nasibov's "Karabakh."
