Malaysia Bans Spanish Hit Song “Despacito” Due To Its Lyrics

It’s not even up to week of “Despacito” by Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee becoming the most streamed song of all time and it’s been banned in Malaysia because of its lyrics.
The ban applies only to government-run radio and TV outlets, not to private stations or YouTube or the music streaming services fuelling the song’s success.
Communications Minister Salleh Said Keruak this morning said the song was reviewed and banned because of public complains that the lyrics are obscene. Salleh was also quoted by local media as saying private radio stations should censor the song themselves out of sensitivity to local culture.
Not long ago, an Islamic party, Amanah, earlier denounced the song and called for it to be kept off Malaysia’s airwaves because many young children were singing it without understanding the words.
Despacito is a Spanish-language song that means “slowly”. It was released by Puerto Rican artists Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee in January 2017. The original and the remix featuring Bieber together are the most streamed track of all time with more than 4.6 billion plays across streaming platforms.

Wiz Khalifa Becomes The New King Of YouTube

It will be fair to say Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Putt are the new kings of YouTube as their duo, Fast and Furious 7 homage, See You Again, has overtaken Psy’s Gangnam Style for the title of YouTube’s most-watched video ever. Yes! Like ever in YouTube’s history.
The music video, which serves as a tribute for the late Paul Walker with various scenes from his role in the Fast and the Furious movies, has garnered more than 2,909,210,181 views.

Gangnam Style held the title of most-watched video on the service for nearly half a decade, being the first video to skyrocket past one billion views just a few months after it was released on July 15, 2012.

Sadly Wiz Khalifa won’t hold this record for quite the same time or even long enough, as Luis Fonsi’s Despacito (not the version with Bieber) has racked up nearly 2.6 billion views in just five months and seems poised to overtake See You Again in short order.
