Shindy machte öffentlich, dass Disney ihn womöglich wegen des Samples verklagt hat.Bild: Screenshot / Instagram / shindyShindy should have known it better, because the musician Russ was already grabbed the sample for one of his songs.He still asked rumbly via Twitter: "Disney, please don't sue me...", but for free.His project could not start.When asked by a user whether he could simply have made the song on Soundcloud for free, he replied: "No.Free or not, you need a permit to be able to use the sample."
Shindy had to delete single completely
In addition, it is not the first time that Shindy had to delete a song after publication."Affalterbach" was only online for a day, then he had to be removed from all platforms.The reason for this was not a sample this time, but the voice of none other than Shirin David.
Shindy had released the track against her will, she sings the Hook in "Affalterbach".A unknown singer temporarily sang her part.It took around two years for the song to finally appear in the chorus with the "Give him" interpreter, the two artists had finally agreed behind the scenes.
The fans of the rapper from Bietigheim-Bissingen do not have to be patient for too long until there is replenishment for the disappeared song "In the shadow of the fig trees".The new track "Mandarines", which hopefully there are no legal inconsistencies, is scheduled to appear on Friday of this week.
He was able to delight his fans before the release-in a short Instagram clip that his son Niko films, Shindy first asks: "Do we show the people of Papis new song?"This immediately follows the "yes" of the little one.The video was already played with the first tones of "Mandarinen" over two million times."Thank you Niko.Papi loves you, "the interpreter wrote in his Instagram story.
