Shakira Sued Over Allegedly Not Paying For Her Hit Loca

Bad news for Shakira. The hottie is getting sued by Reggaeton artist Nejo.

According to Nejo, Shakira never paid him or gave him credit for writing her song Loca. Nejo was apparently involved in writing the lyrics for the song which is part of Shakira’s Sale El Sol album.

Nejo claims he’s “furious” that they used his portion of the song and his voice and isn’t being compensated.

The suit also includes Pitbull and Dominican artist Cata. Nejo goes on to say:

"I am furious, they used my part of the song, my verses, my voice, and the remix I did with Dalmata. Cata stole from me because he stayed quiet so he can take all the money. Even though he (Cata) wrote the original song, he knows that Shakira fell in love with my verses. They put 'Shakira featuring Cata' while only thanking me and Dalmatra in the CD sleeve. It should have said 'Shakira featuring Ñejo' "

Though shouldn’t he be suing Shakira’s people who put together the album?

      It was bound to happen. She has been accused of stealing since Pies Descalzos. And they give Gaga crap for "stealing", Shakira's success has come all from taking stuff from other artists. I guess the difference is that she isn't popular enough for anyone to care.

      She's human garbage.

      How many times has Shakira stolen in the past, Roberto? I heard she got sued my Luis Miguel or some other Latin artist and My Hips Don't lie used to be a salsa song but I'm sure she paid the rights for it. It's not called stealing… or else everyone is copying Vivaldi and Beethoven for doing music too.

      Re: Roberto1 – Hater! Shakira very popular. She has had a long career and in general she is a good person helping children globally and especially in her country of origin, Colombia.

      She is a talented singer, beautiful and caring woman! Don't hate Roberto.
