Should we have the Hetaira article deleted?

The song was created in 2014 for the MAIKA Original Song Contest. Unfortunately, this was also the year horizonsP came under fire for plagiarism. In the thread on VocaloidOtaku.net regarding the controversy of horizonsP, the thread creator happened to point out the producer used a track called "Destroy It (Urban Contact Remix)" for Hetaira. And when I listened to the aforementioned remix...

Hetaira and Destroy It (Urban Contact Remix) seems to really sound the same.

Also, according to the Hetaira article, the song received blacklash for themes referencing prostitution. This is something I somehow find ironic, considering horizonsP usually creates songs with really naughty themes and most don't really complain. I think the real reason the song received backlash because horizonsP used someone else's track for the song.

P.S. - horizonsP is still active in the Vocaloid community but he no longer commits plagiarism like he did a few years ago.
