UPDATE: I got a strike for this reaction by the distribution team of XG. I told them to take me to court and said I would fight them. This was via KZbin Counter Notification process. They DROPPED the strike. We won. However I will no longer post XG on this channel but I WILL KEEP SUPPORTING THEM VIA REACTIONS on THIS CHANNEL: www.youtube.com/@AnthonyRayKPOP

@@doraemon8975 It's so weird, honestly wish there was some way AR could reach out to Simon or someone close to Simon. Something feels off about this, like he was targeted for some weird reason. Dozens of reactions to this song, hundreds - maybe thousands - of XG reactions across the catalog and only this one gets a copy strike? XG is usually SUPER reactor friendly, hell Maya and Harvey even shouted out the reactors in Two Tens. Feels like some weirdo at Avex had a grudge or something.

Harvey second verse, “call me Harvey but not your Barbie…” on the galz xypher tape 2 , Harvey says” I’m Harvey not Harley cause I ain’t no joke” Harlequin is the Joker girlfriend, but the same actress that plays Harlequin in the suicide squad movie plays Barbie in the Barbie movie

She said Harvey the real Harley but yes Margot Robbie played both Harley Quinn and Barbie. Hinata was also giving off Harley Quinn vibes during one of the music shows.

The truth is, the situation with this reaction remains a mystery, because today, a month after the song was released, reactions to "Woke Up" are still being uploaded to KZbin without any consequences, although thinking about it it is not so much a mystery, Since this reaction was carried out in a live stream for about four hours receiving donations and tips and that could be perceived as the creator receiving economic benefit from the MV, so I believe that is where the strike came from.
@sanseiryu5 ай бұрын
I watched that livestream as well and was worried that you might get blocked. XGALX generally leaves reactors alone as they want XG content to being introduced to as many people as possible. I don't see many companies telling fans to come to their concerts and record video and sound and post it to social media. I'm sorry you had this experience, because you are an incredible reactor , great knowledge about music and rap/hip hop, sharing that knowledge and breaking it down for us. I will follow you at your other channel.

@Nownonblonde5 ай бұрын
It’s 100% the live stream where he gets donations that causes the flag. There are a lot of other reactions posted but they aren’t receiving donations for their posts on YT. If streaming and receiving donations, posting on Patreon will avoid that or editing out the donation portions for YT will avoid the flags.

Live stream monetization most probably, or distribution of it in a restricted market. XGALX/AVEX holds the copyrights. They can legally permit the use. KZbin has algorithms that can find uploaded copyright content, and take it down based on the copyright holders contract. If the record company that created XG can't make money, there is no XG. Other reactors don't live stream, they edit and post. In copyright laws there are performing rights and publishing rights, with other limitations, like exclusive distribution agreements based on Country or Region. I like this reactors love for XG, but he is walking a thin line on this issue it seems. Part of the reason XG decided to be based out of Korea is because their IP, CopyRight, and Broadcast laws are less restrictive in global distribution than in Japan, that is why Jpop didn’t grow internationally despite being big in Japan and a bigger music market than Korea, where K-pop did because Korea wanted to do soft Korean cultural exports because it helps pull through demand for manufactured Chaebol products from the likes of Samsung, LG, Hyundai, etc. I know someone who won a Grammy in the World music category, but she made no money off of it, because writhin 24 hours 0f winning the Grammy, it was pirated and spread around the world over the internet, and she did not have the resources or large agency behind her to pursue all the IP thefts internationally, legally.
