Keep in mind the De22ou el Chamasi saga (right here)? Now watch the Mega ice cream movie right here. To be sincere the movie is effectively achieved, very hip and trendy and funky. The difficulty? Effectively, apparently Nancy Ajram interprets the tune that goes together with the movie. Now, the affiliation of artists in Egypt is suing Mega Ice Cream or the corporate that did the advert (it’s not clear from the phrases of the authorized counselor of the affiliation Hussam Loutfi) to the tune of the ten million Egyptian kilos.
This is the background: The tune used within the advert was a success for the late Farid El Atrach, besides they modified the phrases to suit the product. Now, the unique tune was written by the late Syrian poet Nizar Qabbani. Logically, the property of the late El Atrach is the one one involved legally. However nope – the daughter of Qabbani stated her father’s title shouldn’t be placed on a product – effectively, for all his prouesse, thoughts you the entire tune was rewritten in order that Qabbani has no authorized declare by any means. Right here is the El Atrach tune (right here).
Actually, how all this grew to become a authorized saga is past me. As a result of legally, if the rights had been purchased from the El Atrach household, then everyone seems to be within the clear… However severely, copyright legal guidelines are simply so insane within the Center East as I stated prior.
