Mindanao-based singer Shaira Moro’s song “Selos” was taken down on every online streaming platform after Australian singer-songwriter Lenka took action over a copyright claim.

The melody of “Selos” is similar to that of Lenka’s “Trouble Is A Friend” released in 2008.

Meanwhile, Shaira’s record label AHS Productions released a statement, noting their pending agreement on securing a cover license for the song.

“We have chosen to take it down from all platforms pending our agreement with the original artist’s management on securing a cover license for ‘Selos’,” AHS Production wrote.

The label added being in contact with Lenka’s team to make “Selos” an official cover of “Trouble Is A Friend.”

“[T]he melody that we have used is originally from a song entitled “Trouble is a Friend” by Lenka and as of the moment, we are already in contact with her team for us to make “Selos” an official cover,” AHS Production said.

Shaira rose to fame for the song “Selos,” which led to netizens dubbing her as “Queen of Bangsamoro Pop.”
