US judge dismisses the case against Shakira’s “Loca”

A case against Shakira’s 2010 hit “Loca” was filed for being a plagiarized copy of a Dominican songwriter’s work.

U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein dismissed the case against Sony/ATV Latin and Sony/ATV Discos after finding a cassette tape on which the Dominican songwriter Ramon Arias Vasquez had allegedly recorded that the original song was a fake.

“Here was a basic issue of fraud in the trial,” said Alvin Hellerstein.

Shakira’s “Loca” reached the top of the Latin Billboard charts, reportedly selling more than 5 million copies worldwide.
