Possible copyright infringment??

D_p_90 — Sat, 06 Mar 2021 17:56:41 GMT

Hi all, I didn’t know where else to post this but I am comcerned this artist is making multiple copyright violations - https://open.spotify.com/artist/4SPn4mx3CWufJWrTeOimQd?nd=1

For instance, they have ‘Hooked On a Feeling’ as one of their tracks but this sounds almost exactly like the original by Blue Swede; they’ve put themselves as the artist, though.

Is there any way for someone at Spotify to look into this person’s discography to see if this is the case? Perhaps they've got some sort of license in place... but it'd be good for someone to check out.
