Skip to main content Show The pop icon speaks out after accusing the Canadian rapper/singer of using "Into the Groove" on "Pluto's Last Comet" without permission Madonna appears ready to go after Tory Lanez after alleging the Canadian artist’s new song “Pluto’s Last Comet” rips off her 1985 single, “Into the Groove.” In a statement shared with Rolling Stone via a representative, Madonna says, “I am tired of being taken advantage of and I mean business.” “Pluto’s Last Comet” appears on Lanez’s new Eighties-inspired album, Alone at Prom, and the song’s lead synth riff does bare a resemblance to the one in Madonna’s “Into the Groove.” Madonna first raised the issue in — of all places — the comments section on one of Lanez’s Instagram posts, writing last Wednesday, Dec. 22, “Read your messages [for] illegal usage of my song get into the groove!” Madonna’s rep did not immediately return a request for additional information, like whether she might pursue a copyright infringement suit against Lanez, or seek a writing credit on the song. A representative for Lanez did not immediately return a request for comment. On top of facing the ire of Madonna, Lanez is of course wrapped up in the legal battle over his shooting of Megan Thee Stallion in the foot in July 2020. Earlier this month, Lanez — real name Daystar Peterson — was ordered to stand trial on felony charges following a hearing where one detective said Peterson yelled “Dance, bitch!” at Megan before firing his weapon. Peterson will be back in court on Jan. 13. Go to PMC.com
Tory Lanez artistry, traditionally speaking, may fall primarily into the category of rap music. However, this song sounds more like a dance tune derived from the early 1980s, something that maybe Michael Jackson would have dropped in the pre-Thriller days. But that said, “Pluto’s Last Comet” is, most simply put, a song of unrequited love. It finds the song’s main subject, i.e. the addressee, being presented as someone who is snubbing the vocalist. Meanwhile she also happens to be the apple of Tory’s eye, to his dismay. That is to say that whereas he is smitten by her beauty she has major personality flaws, especially, within the context of this narrative, when it comes to the way she treats him. However, this may have something to do with the implication that she’s actually dating someone else. Either way, Lanez is in the unenviable predicament of being in love with someone or in the very least physically addicted to a lover who treats him poorly. And to note, the thesis sentiment is actually based on his “need” for her, not the fact that she emotionally abuses him. And the narrative is a bit confusing in that on one hand the vocalist implies that he is sexually involved with the addressee, while in the very next line he asserts that she ‘won’t be his lover’. But maybe what Tory is saying is that she may give herself to him physically but not emotionally. In any event, there doesn’t seem to be any astronomical references or metaphors in the lyrics, thus begging the question as to what exactly the title is meant to allude to. But maybe understanding it would require a more in depth listen of the entirety of the album this song is featured on.  Facts about “Pluto’s Last Comet”One Umbrella Records put this track out on 10 December 2021 as part of “Alone at Prom”, Tory Lanez’ sixth studio album. “Pluto’s Last Comet” managed to make major headlines shortly after its release. This happened moments after Madonna, a tenured musician a lot more established than Lanez, commented about it. Actually Madonna claimed that Tory plagiarized a song she dropped back in 1985 entitled “Into the Groove” onto “Pluto’s Last Comet”. As of the writing of this post, Tory Lanez has yet to respond to the aforementioned allegations. But to note whereas he did write “Pluto’s Last Comet”, the instrumental, which is apparently the part of the song Madonna has an issue with, was actually produced by two other musicians:
