“Aap Jaisa Koi,” Nazia Hassan’s ground-breaking first single, continues to be significant in the annals of South Asian music. When it was used in the 1980 Bollywood movie Qurbani, it became popular around the world and solidified Hassan’s reputation as a gifted musician. The song has recently attracted more notice because of how much it resembles Sabrina Carpenter’s extremely popular song, “Please Please Please.”
Numerous listeners have noted how strikingly similar the openings of the two songs sound. This has led to online discussions, with some fans speculating that Carpenter’s song may have been influenced by Hassan’s iconic hit. Because of this striking similarity, a number of people have expressed enthusiasm over a potential link.
Understanding Musical Influences and Sampling Techniques
Despite these findings, it is unlikely that Sabrina Carpenter intentionally copied “Aap Jaisa Koi.” Any similarities between the songs are most likely the result of similar sampling techniques. Sampling is the process by which musicians combine parts of old songs to create new ones. This could explain why the two tracks sound similar. The resemblance could simply be the result of these common musical methods rather than direct copying.
