    1. May nabasa akong comment sa isang post about this na hindi tayo nag susupport sa mga fil artist. Samantalang ang mga hapon daw e gustong gusto yung kanta ng isang Indonesian artist (not sure or malaysian) . E pano naman suportahan kung ganyan na kinuha lang pala sa isang song yong piyesa.

    3. As far as I know, Lenka is under SME label -Sony. One of the Big Four so for sure me copyright management tools sila to detect potential matches (i.e. song, lyrics, sound) bago pa pa maireport ng pinoy. These are common for labels/publisher who has a large library of content that they manage Sabi nga nya sa reply, "Yes, we have taken action", meaning they are aware of it. Mas nakakahiya ung giangawa ng kapwa pinoy who are attacking and harassing the original singer who has legal rights to the content. Using someones copyrighted work is stealing and has legal consequences which means Shaira & her label could end up paying fines and be brought to court. But I believed, her team is trying tk settle it outside court and seeking/buying the rights for using thr melody. And hopefully, it can be settled. But the way some Filipinos are responding, this could jeopardize the settlemement they are working on. We are not really helping. By attacking Lenka, this can go south.

    5. Literally my husband and I when we found out that “kawawang cowboy” was a cover of “rhinestone cowboy”. Lol and smh. Those songs were from our parents’ generation.

  8. Bakit kasi pinilit gawing mainstream yung Shaira eh hindi naman pang mainstream version nya. San ka ba nakarinig ng linya na "kung hindi rin lang tayo, sana mamatay na lang kayo." Basura diba? Mga pinoy kasi hilig makibandwagon. Kalowka!

    2. May credit at parody daw na nakalagay, pero walang license to use the melody.

  10. Lenka is making the right move. Stealing someone else's art is not okay. Trouble is indeed Shaira's friend LOL

    1. Oo. Inaaway na si Lenka. Parang gusto pa nila magpasalamat si Lenka kasi nakilala raw siya dahil sa selos. Haha

    2. Ngek. Sikat kaya si Lenka. Di lang nila kasi panahon. Haha.

      Delete
  12. No doubt kinopya nila kay Lenka. First time pa lang na narinig ko alam ko agad na familiar siya. Kaya lang ampangit ng version na tagalog pina autotune pa nila. Yikes!

    2. 1:00 smiley has a point tho. Ang galing magpreach and magpavictim ang Pinoy and yet the same pinoy na enabler ng kasamaan. So i dont understand why so press. Butthurt ka ba na nakakahiya ang mga pinoy? Na naslap ng reality?

  16. People should really be educated about Intellectual Property. Hindi kasi ganun ka strict ang ganyang batas dito sa Pinas. Good job though for taking it down bago tuluyang mauwi sa lawsuit yan from Lenka's team.

  17. Basura kasi ng mga nauusong kanta ngayon sa totoo lang. Buti na rin yan

    ReplyDelete
  18. Repost: Nagulat ako na may nagtatanggol pa kay Shaira sa ginawa nyang pag gamit ng kanta ni Lenka ng walang paalam. At parang ipinupunto pa nya na utak talangka at inggit lang yung mga galit kay Shaira. Nagulat ako nung una pero naalala ko, nasa Pilipinas nga pala tayo at sanay na pala ako na may nagjujustify ng mga pagnanakaw at handang ipagtanggol ang mga idols nila kahit harap harapang mali na nga.

  20. Sad wala na yung mga Original Pinoy Music writers and makers. Yung mga tunog Pinoy at Kantang pinoy :(

  21. Trouble is a Friend is such a good song. They sped up the melody, replaced the lyrics, and used an annoying perya sounding like keyboard and voila, jeje hit song is born. The video is still up in YT btw.

  22. Ang pangit pala ng kantang 'selos' tapos mega auto tune pa pero basura pa rin.

  24. IBIG SABIHIN BA NIYAN MAGKAKA-IISSUE NA ANG LAHAT NG MGA CONTENT SA REELS NA GUMAGAMIT NG SELOS AS AUDIO? ANDAMING NAGKAKAMILLION VIEWS USING THIS SONG. MERON AKONG ISA 😔😔

    1. Natake down na daw ang Selos sa mga reels. Tapos auto-mute na sa Facebook.

      Delete
    2. Yes. Nagkaviolation ang isang reel ko dahil sa audio na Selos. May copyright issue walang earnings lahit million views. At least may option na palitan mo lang mg new audio hindi na need idelete ang reel.

  25. For those who doesnt know, Shaira is just a local singer fr Maguindanao na di akalain sisikat. And na nakasanayan na ng mga local singers gumawa ng parody version ng ibang songs. Im talking about music na naririnig lang sa probinsya at hindi sa syudad. Her success is unpredictable

    1. Your comment doesn't address the issue that she ripped off a song. So dahil sumikat ang isang "local singer" for stealing okay na ganun ba? Because everyone was doing it anyway okay na?

      Delete
    2. But they uploaded it in all streaming platforms including Spotify, that's a big no no.

      Delete
  26. Pwede ka magsample ng tune pero magpaalam muna sa original owner. Siguro lack of research lang part ni Shaira yung tune kasi ng Trouble as a friend kalat na sa Tiktok dami ko nakikita ginagamit yan as dance beat sa mga video.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Mas marami pang views yung kay shaira kesa kay lenka

    Replies
    1. that does not make her the owner of the song at pagkakitaan. give credit sa original creator

      Delete
    2. Regardless if it is has more views or not popular or not, the issue here is that it was used without rights. Kahit me disclaimer na no copyright intended or credits to the owner, this is not enough. You have to seek permission, rights to use the song, either ung melody or kahit konting part ng lyrics. It is a copyrighted which means legally protected and copyright owner has full rights they would like their content to be used. Yes maraming views but they could end paying hefty fines and can be brought to court. Hopefully masettle na at wag na ibash ung 2 singer. Ang prob nyan, other pinoys are harassing the original singer which is not helping Shaira at all. Baka pag nainis ung management dahil sinisira ung reputation ni Lenka, umabot pa sa korte

  28. Buti na lang. Di maganda mangopya ng obra o manggaya

  29. kahit pa gumawa ng orig song ang mga legit pinoy singers di rin naman tinatangkilik lalo na mga fans ng high & mighty, bagkus ay puro bashing at comparison sa mga artists ang nangyayari, mas umiiral ang inggit at crab mentality

  30. Lenka is doing the right thing.
    Shaira could’ve done better.

  31. Kaya pala parang familiar yung tono niya hindi ko ma recall kanta pala ni Lenka yun. Sorry not sorry walang originality eh

    ReplyDelete
  32. Hahaha sikat naman na si Lenka before, I always sing her songs sa karaoke like yung Trouble is a Friend na copy ni Shaira at yung The Show.

  33. Mag isip kasi kayo ng original at huwag mag-pirata sa pinaghirapan ng iba.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Nako bini, kabahan na kayo. yung pantropiko hatalang rip off ng Shape of you ni ed sheeran. while it is okay to take inspiration from western music, dapat art works still must have some sort of novelty and originality. Pantropiko's beats halatang kinopya sa shape of you lol

  35. Hoiii nagkokopyahan lang din ang iba kahit sa ibang bansa. Mga kapwa pinoy talaga mahilig magpahamak ng mga kababayan nila.

    2. 2:45 do not normalize copying. that's why may mga batas against copyright infringement, aral ka muna. Give credit to the original owner. And there is no artistry in copying.

  37. totoo pag sa pinoys may umangkin din ng s atin edi ba nagagalit din tayo? ganyan rin yung artist na original n kumanta at ngcompose they have their rights,, hindi natin kailangan humingi ng utang na loob n sumikat kasi dahil may ngcover thats not their goal respect dahil kanila yang kanta.
