    I don’t know about this “album”, but this guy released a follow up Anne II, which was straight up a 1983 album by another artist, slowed down 10% and then he rearranged the songs and renamed them. Some of his other videos of “his songs” have also been called out. Anyone know if this album is also literally someone else’s work?

    Here’s one he literally just renamed as his.
