Plagiarism?

Plagiarism?

As I saw pointed out in other posts, Spotify's method of reporting possible copyright infringement, as of yet, doesn't allow for users to report if they're not affiliated with whoever owns the copyright. So, I can't submit this through the form, but I thought to register the situation here.

There's this song, "If you don't want my love", released in 2023 by American artist Jalen Ngonda, with about 16 million plays in Spotify:


Jalen Ngonda's "If you don't want my love"


And then this song, "Enzo", released in 2020 by Brazilian band Quem é você Alice?, with about 21 thousand plays on Spotify:


Quem é você Alice?'s "Enzo"


I don't know much about copyright law, but it struck me how similar the compositions in these tracks are. I'm not the one to say if this is a case of plagiarism, or even who is at fault, but I believe this should be looked into.
