It’s been almost two months since MGK, YUNGBLUD and Barker surprise dropped “acting like that” ahead of the release of YUNGBLUD’s new album weird!. Then, last week, the trio teamed up for a zombie-filled video for the collab that has a very unexpected ending.

Now, it looks like fans are noticing a similarity between “acting like that” and the Metro Station hit “Shake It.” Earlier this week, TikTok user @drettysnapped shared a video comparing the two songs. As it turns out, both tracks have a very similar beat pattern in the chorus, causing them to sound a lot alike.
