"Kid LAROI's new music video copies multiple shots from my videos. As an underground indie artist who writes and directs their own music videos, I am so sick of big artists ripping me off," he said in the video.
In the video, it can be seen that at least six different shots were copied on Oliver Tree's five different video materials.
For Tree, however, he said that he is not blaming Laroi for the mishap but instead goes after Breslauer, who directed the video.
Upon checking the director's Instagram account, Breslauer "coincidentally" follows Tree.
As of this writing, Christian Breslauer nor The Kid LAROI has not issued a statement on the issue nor even acknowledged seeing Tree's video.
With the backlash, The Kid LAROI'S "Thousand Miles" music video was filled with comments calling out Breslauer and LAROI on the alleged copying.
However, the video now amassed over 8.6 million views - seemed to be restarted? Previous comments calling out the artist and the director have now been deleted, leaving only comments made in the past few hours as of this writing.

The Kid LAROI, Scooter Braun Feuding Over THIS TikTok Video?
Almost a month ago, The Kid LAROI fired up TikTok with a rather controversial video that he posted. The "STAY" hitmaker previewed his new song, "Thousand Miles," on the TikTok video.

Captioned, "show me ur last mistake. use this sound," The Kid LAROI's track sang "Here goes another mistake I know I'm gon' make," cutting to a photo montage of his former manager - Scooter Braun.
Fans of the Australian singer are intrigued as the two broke apart last year due to internal differences. Swifties even welcomed the 18-year-old singer to the club, as they thought he was a victim of Braun's controversial management skills.
To Swifties' dismay, Braun apparently cleared out the air and revealed that he gave LAROI the admission to use him on the content to further create clamor on his upcoming single.
