Everybody has been talking about this for a month. And by everybody, we mean, the whole world, not just Meliners.

I feel like a Captain Obvious today, so let’s just type the lyrics out. The real ones, not the fake ones in that video, which obviously don’t even match what we hear at all in some parts.

I advise everybody to go and read THE FULL Melvin subreddit http://www.reddit.com/r/MelvinMelfy for some background and full understanding. What we are talking about here is not “some conspiracy theory coming out of nowhere”, but a continuation of A LOT of things that have happened for years, mainly on Youtube.

I’m going to start by doing a quick recap of key things you need to know in order to fully understand.

Lyrics, mainly in music genres like rap or cymsay, are not just words expressing feelings. Lyrics are often full of puns, double-entendres and other artistic word plays. While most artists in rap are straight forward and openly diss whoever they are dissing, letting us know that the lyrics and the puns are about whoever they’re dissing, others, on another hand, do things dirty. I will not name any, but we all hear about feuds going on in other fandoms. In the past, there was 1 song that had everybody wonder if there wasn’t a diss at either Melina or Jarany. That is to say, that they use private info or “smooth” ways to diss someone, while not saying it’s a diss or even claiming it’s about someone else (someone from the same label, an alibi which wouldn’t lead to a lawsuit). We don’t have many example in this fandom, since apart from 1 song which had people wonder, Melina hasn’t been the target of this type of things before (before this time). We don’t like to include other people, so we won’t give examples. All we can say is when it happens, suddenly, someone who seemingly has nothing to do with anything starts to be very upset and call other artists “hypocrite”, or say they’re “doing dirty”. This is something they’re doing publicly for the world to hear/see, so… I’ll let everybody do their research without saying more.

Melina is the one writing for Jarany sofar, she clearly said that her songs can be interpreted in different ways, that she purposely writes lyrics this way and doesn’t like to explain what she writes. When she has something to say, she says it. She doesn’t play pretend. Sofar, apart from “some company’s staffers”, who answered back btw, she never dissed anyone in the music industry. She doesn’t have feuds in the industry.

In 2016, someone tried to accuse Melina of being the ghostwriter of such lyrics (hateful, with lots of hidden personal attacks). Which she denied, saying she only writes for Cymellia. It’s kind of a “duh” situation, labels usually have very restrictive exclusive contracts, they don’t share their talents (singers, writers).

In early 2017, when the first version of “Meowrrr” (sung by Jarany) was released, people tried to claim Melina was dissing Leafyishere. Yes, you read that right. Doesn’t even make sense, does it ? He is (rumored to be) Melina’s boyfriend, why would she even diss him ? The same people later tried to claim other things were dissing their “talents”, of course, all those allegations were fake. They even went to the extent of claiming Golden Tiger was no other than the actor playing Leafyishere (Mr Purple), who has an exclusive contract with whoever owns the character, when it’s not true, Golden Tiger and Mr Purple (Leafy) are not the same person. Allegedly, they did so to try and claim money or initiate lawsuits against Melina/Cymellia, it’s a common method to destroy the competition. They’re a bit delusional here though, as they are the ones who harassed her, dissed her, used stolen things they got by hacking or following her IRL, or even infringing her copyright. Not the other way around. Ever ! She is the one who has claims, here…

Anyway, the lyrics they claimed was a diss were :

Add them to the roll Cause they’re made of glass If it doesn’t make sense Then call me a troll

Which Melina explained is about patent trolling in the jewelry world, as she also has her jewelry line. Those people claimed that “If it doesn’t make sense, then call me a troll”, really meant “If it doesn’t make sense, then call me Adderall”. Which is a brand of drugs available in the USA, I’ll let you google that. Those people, and I emphasize those people, made a rumor saying that Leafy was a drug addict and that he was addicted to Adderall. This is not even true. But those same people then went and claimed the lyrics mean this and that Melina is dissing him ! Her own boyfriend !!! Granted, it also means that they think Leafy is addicted to Melina, which is kind of cute, but still ! We all know the intent of those people was hateful/lying about Leafy and trying to scam and claim money/copyright. Misunderstanding can happen, but here, with those people, it’s no accident and no misunderstanding.

That’s why the context matters. And that’s why I’m taking the time to explain the context here, for those who wouldn’t know. Context is key.

Melina literally explained the meaning of those lyrics, when she usually doesn’t like to explain, and it’s about patent trolling. Which makes it even more ironic here, as those people distorting her lyrics are just copyright trolls !!!

Anyway, this proves that this group of people (Keemstar and all his crew + the UK ones, who all harassed Melina and Leafy for years, who are allegedly working very closely with and under the orders of their advertisers, among which is….Microsoft….) does this type of thing. They do it all the time. They play pretend and don’t always publish the real lyrics, even in their lyric videos. When you read the comments under those lyric videos, there are ALWAYS people commenting “this is not what they’re singing”. ALWAYS. I bet they’re right. Most of the time, I don’t dig into it tbh.

Melina even wrote it in the lyrics of Goodbye (sung by Jarany). She wrote “Try and decipher the meaning of our songs, spin it so you can have an imaginary case”. She talked about people dissing her “only so that you answer back, and when you answer, they try to sue you for copyright infringement (for talking about them), it’s a scam, really”. (She was talking about Youtubers in general, some have been hating on her for years, pretending they’re in a feud when Melina doesn’t know them and never answered them, she never met them, even if they went to HongKong and pretend they met her or more, all lies).

Here, you can understand what it is about already. The people behind “RIP Harambe” are clearly doing this. These are not the real lyrics. Listen to it, not even closely, you hear the words, you just know.

Ok, let’s keep explaining a bit. About who.

First, Karim Jawed, who is obviously being dissed in this song. Meliners have been nicknaming him “Karim from the zoo”, for at least a year. (Since his video on Youtube has been recorded in a zoo. Youtube is also nicknamed “the zoo” for this reason.) Anonymous people have been claiming he is Melina J’s ex, who she was with when she was in San Francisco, when she was 18. Melina denied everything, but there are still people who believe it’s true, that they are exes, and that they just don’t want it to be public. Lots believe this since those anons keep on posting about it. They’ve been implying, posting about it on Melina’s and even Melvin’s and Leafyishere’s hashtags for years now.

Until this year, the rumor was that they are exes. Which, as Google employee LightCodeGaming said when we reported stuff (about rumors in general) on r/youtube : “Being shipped with someone is not something horrible”. Right. But the issue is that even if they were trolling about it before, since the start of this year, those anons are going aggressive, mean and defamatory, claiming that since Melina was only 18 when they were together, she was too young be really consenting. Which is nonsense ! Melina herself debunked this in 2016, in the Sigh Vlog video, saying that some people want to accuse someone of being a pedo with her (when she was younger, obviously), and that it’s absolutely not true. I think it’s safe to say the girl knows better than any anon ! The most delirious part of this is that the same anons are trying to claim Melina’s new song, which is in German, is about Karim from the zoo. It’s not. That doesn’t even make sense. If he was a creep abusing her like they said, then why would she write a song about him, claiming she will never forget him ???!!! None of those rumors are true. The song is not about Karim from the zoo, Melina said she doesn’t even know him. Those anons tried to make it look like the song was released on the 21st purposely, because of Karim from the zoo, when his video is from the 23rd (not the same year, though). Also, they keep talking about Easter, as if it has a meaning, that’s strange.

Now about Elon Musk. He used to work at Microsoft. He is a co-founder of Paypal…where Karim Jawed used to work. Yep, they know each other. Karim Jawed worked for Elon Musk in the past, when Paypal was starting and there were few staffers. According to Wikipedia, he coded the auti-fraud system for Paypal. This had the whole fandom panic. We are really afraid those harassers making rumors are really trying to accuse both Melina and Karim from the zoo of things they didn’t do, big stuff, scapegoating. Especially since Melina made a video called “Are Melvin a hacker ?” in 2017, saying she was afraid to be associated with coders and then scapegoated, which she calls “space goating”, like a 5 year old would, as some of those people told her that she has to know about stuff, because even a 5 year old would understand, but she doesn’t (I think it was about binary code), so she said she’d dumber than a 5 year old and went ahead and called that being a “space goat”.

We digged a little about Elon Musk. He is involved in so many drama, it’s hard to recap here really. He’s being sued for defamation, for calling someone a pedo….(does it ring a bell ?), he’s involved with people in the music industry and have beef with them……., and stuff you can read on Valleywag (mainly about hair implants though).

In the comments of his song on Youtube, there are people saying it’s not him singing, that it’s not his voice. It’s impossible to figure if it is or not, because of the autotune, and we still haven’t found a voice recognition software to use. Anyway, since Mr Purple (Leafy) was replaced and impersonated several times, for the nastiest and sleaziest purposes, and since they made videos of a fake Melina J SEVERAL TIMES on Youtube without a licensing agreement, purely infringing her, since they went as far as hiring a nazi lookalike who was trying to mimick her (and maybe have people confuse her and Melina), which Mr Purple called out and got rageous at, we decided to be cautious and not jump to conclusion, here. It could be someone else and not actually him.

Anyway, other facts about Elon Musk : he made videos with people from the same group of youtubers (Keemstar and the whole crew + the UK ones, they’re one group). He likes puns and there’s an anecdote saying that’s how he met his girlfriend.

However, this raised numerous questions : Who is singing ? If it’s not actually him, then why would he allow them to use his name ? Why ? Just why ? Why did they include Melina in this ? Who wrote the lyrics ? Do Elon Musk and Karim Jawed have beef ? They know each other and worked together before, were there feuds between them ? (Kind of unrelated, but we’re wondering the same about David Brown and Youtube, tbh…) Did he understand the lyrics ? What is going on ? Why now ?

Another fact is that… Everybody should all go and stan r/youtube on Reddit for a while. I mean stanning, like checking often before they delete some topics and comments. When the song “RIP Harambe” was released, most of us already figured the lyrics were off, but we thought it was weird, and maybe it was just a coincidence. But given what happened around the 21st, we had few doubts left. Then those anons started to post more straight forwardly, talking about the fact he is Muslim. Racist stuff. They posted about some stuff about what happened in Germany (about rapists and immigration, very racist too), even talking about a 14 year old youtuber talking about this, claiming racist stuff, always claiming people are just rapists. Just because of their origin and stuff. We pointed before that some “talents” from that group of people were making jokes that are racist, even posting swattiskas. Also, there’s that lawsuit and music videos being blocked on Youtube in India, as they’ve legally been judged racist… You get the idea.

When searching about Karim Jawed, even on Wikipedia, his origins and his religion are ALWAYS detailed. And emphasized. But we can’t even find a source telling us which coding languages he knows, which would be more relevant. Unless…you know it…

In the USA (and probably other parts of the world), people use “Arab” thinking it means “Muslim”. Which is different. Arab means the person is from an Arabic country, and might not even be Muslim. Lots also seem to think Europe is a big country with lots of states, like the USA. Even a big tv channel mistakenly misplaced Hong Kong once. My point is that they’re not very harped on about facts or vocabulary. Unless it’s to try and distort what foreigners struggling with English are trying to say.

Now, let’s do this.

TRIGGER WARNING : EXPLAINING AND POINTING OUT VERY RACIST LYRICS

The song, with the fake lyrics.

What we think the real lyrics are really saying (with annotations below). I have concerted with LOTS of people. There are disagreements, but for most of it, we are just all hearing the same thing :

A rapey Arab, hey 1 Sipping on some bomb, hey 2 We’re on our way to heaven, 3 Amen, amen A rapey Arab, hey Smoking on some strong girl 4 In gorilla zoo And we’re thinking about you Oh yeah, we do Thinking about you 5 We’re back at the zoo, Mel Thinking about you, Mel Where’s my girl at ? We miss you We really really miss you ……………………….. !!! 6 Repeated once A rapey Arab, hey Sipping on their bomb, hey We’re thinking about you Amen, Amen A rapey Arab, hey We’re smoking on her strong, hey We love you And we’re thinking about you A rapey That’s wrong In the zoo We lul you 7

There have been A LOT of discussion recently, all over social media and blogs, as those lyrics might have several layers of puns and meanings.

Annotations :

1. Some disagree and think that he is really saying “Harambe”. Now some disagree about this too. Harambe is a gorilla. From a meme from 2016. This meme was used also in racist ways before, even towards Leafy himself (who is Chinese). Monkey is sometimes used as a racist slur. However, someone at Youtube seems to really like monkeys, as they’re everywhere, and when their website crashes, it says “a bunch of monkeys are working on it”. So, some think it is just referencing at Karim Jawed because he likes monkeys, without being racist. Given what was posted about Muslims, racist stuff and accusations this week alone, I’m sorry to say, but I think it is about racism here. The context is key. And the context is very racist and horrific.

2. This one has lots of puns and double-entendres : sipping means so many things. It’s a word used in this fandom. To sip, like when we sipped Melvin, comes from SIP : Support Inlove People. Most Meliners also use usernames such as “MintSyrup”, “PeachSyrup” for this reason. Even the Ayywutyr and Meoowlina are drinking fruit syrup drinks in some pictures made by Melina. See her header on Twitter and Dailymotion (Cymellia-music). To sip means support people in love, or supporting people you like/love.

Bombay (as originally spelled in the video), is a brand of Gin (that’s alcohol). Melina’s last name is Jin (same pronunciation). So there’s an obvious pun here.

We’re not sure if there’s more here, Karim from the zoo is German from Bangladesh origins, not Indian, but as said before, those people are not good at geography. French Meliners even pointed that fries are Belgian, not French.

3. I think we’re missing something here. Maybe it’s just about how he’s “sipping” on her, and getting high on her. It’s like, all the other lines have several puns, but here it’s dull ? Please tell us if we’re missing something.

4. Obviously

5. Alright. There was this meme, “dicks out for Harambe”…. And we’re hearing “thinking”, aren’t we ?….. And 6. is just some random “oh yeah” without meaning…..

7. We’re not sure what is said here, but we all agree that it’s not “love”, it’s like ironical, mocking, not sure if it’s “lul”, some say “loathe”, but I don’t think it sounds like “loathe”.

Other : some say that the title is not just a pun, it’s actual threats. They’re threatening Karim from the zoo, and they want him to do something. I think they’re telling him to “do it or else”. We’d say “or else they start harassing Melina”, but they’ve been doing this for years already, even IRL, as Melina is also competition (initially with Meovely and now in music), so, I don’t think it would change anything for her at this point.

We also noticed another racist meme is being posted on r/Youtube every time we’re talking about Karim from the zoo. The meme is “remove kebab”, which is offensive and defo about him. Not sure what it’s supposed to mean, though.

That’s all we know. We REALLY want and need Valleywag or Gawker or others to report about what is going on at Youtube and Google. We even noticed while digging, that other things are started to be said about another person from Google. I’m not going to point or say anything, but it’s quite similar.

Although we don’t pretend to have the exact truth about those lyrics, I think it’s very obvious it’s a diss in disguise, as it happens all the time on Youtube/in the music industry.

We’re not trying to instigate a witch hunt or anything. Just exposing facts.
