*Ariana Grande’s “Side To Side’ track featuring Nicki Minaj is at the center of a new copyright infringement lawsuit.

According to TMZ, Texan man Christopher R. O’Connor claims the 2016 hit from Grande’s “Dangerous Woman” album is a ripoff of his track called “J5 (T6).” O’Connor claims someone from UMG Recordings discovered it and got Ariana and Nicki to copy it.

O’Connor tells TMZ he contacted UMG about the alleged copyright violation and was instructed to send in a demo, but the company didn’t address his accusation of song stealing.
