JK Labajo mum amid Iloilo LGU’s disapproval of his expletive lyric
Singer-songwriter Juan Karlos Labajo used a Hiligaynon vulgarity during his performance at the Dinagyang Festival in Iloilo City.
He substituted the expletive "nakakayudpta" for the original lyric in his song "Ere" during a brand-sponsored event on January 24.
The audience responded enthusiastically to his query about local vulgarities, chanting "Y*dip***!" before he sang the modified lyric.
Clips of the incident circulated on social media, prompting disapproval from Iloilo City Mayor Jerry Treñas.
Mayor Treñas emphasized the religious and cultural significance of the Dinagyang Festival and stated that the city will not tolerate such acts.
He also advised organizers to be more careful in selecting artists for future events.
