Yameiry Josefina Infante Honoret (born March 19, 1985), known in show business as La Materialista, is a Dominican singer, rapper, actress and vedette.[2]

In 2011, she was elected by Luz García's Noche de Luz programme as a "Summer's Hot Body".[3][4]

La Materialista was the leading female exponent of the Dominican urban music in the early 2000s, winning the Q Award for "Best Urban Artist" (2012) and "Best Video Clip" (2013); she has also been nominated for the Soberano Award on several occasions as "Best New Artist" and "Urban Group of the Year".

In 2013, she became the first Dominican female artist to perform at Miss Venezuela.[5][6]

Plagiarism allegations

[edit]

In 2013, Honoret was accused of plagiarising the Korean girl group 2NE1's song "I Am the Best" with her newly released track "Chipi Cha Cha".[7] The music video was removed from YouTube after extensive allegations in the comments, and it was re-uploaded in 2015 as a cover.[8]

Honoret responded to the allegations, saying, "Sorry, I didn't think you would feel bad for me it was an honor making a cover of the song with my lyrics."[9]
