These niggers are so obscure that even they haven't heard of themselves.


DISNEY
OUTRAGE OVER 'HAKUNA MATATA'
... Kenyan Band Claims Phrase Was Stolen!!!

Hoping for a multi-million dollar payday, no doubt.

The original song went platinum in Kenya in the 1980s, but John says he and his bandmates didn't understand copyright laws back then, allowing Disney to swoop in and trademark the phrase in '94, coinciding with its movie release.

Disney is releasing a new 'Lion King' next summer, and the increased spotlight has led to a growing petition accusing the company of "colonialism and robbery" ... while calling on Disney to abandon its trademark. The petition has over 147,000 signatures.

Good luck, niggers. If you take a phrase in common currency and put it in your stupid song, it doesn't mean that someone stole your dumb song just because they used the same phrase in their song. LOLZY

No problem. Disney should just replace the song with the new national anthem of Africa, "Hasa Diga Eebowai". :lmao

Ahh, FFS.

Hakuna matata" (pronounced [hɑˈkunɑ mɑˈtɑtɑ]) is a Swahili language phrase from East Africa meaning "no trouble". The word "hakuna" means "there is not here" while "matata" means "problems". The phrase was popularized by the Disney animated film The Lion King (in which it is translated as "no worries" in a song named after the phrase), so that it is heard often at resorts, hotels, and other places appealing to the tourist trade.

So it's actually a phrase in Swahili. Who knew. Does that mean I could trademark "Good Morning" or " See You Later" or "No Lotto For You"? Ya know, just common phrases. :lol
