Fowler, who is dubbed by critics as the Philippines' answer to Cardi B,[4] gained viral notoriety and controversy for her sexually-charged content particularly in her music videos,[5] most notably the single "M.P.L. (Malibog Pag Lasing)" (lit. 'Horny When Drunk');[6] which was also criticised for its alleged objectification of women bordering towards fetishism and pornography.[4][7][8]
Fowler maintains that the videos are only intended for adults and were set as age-restricted on her YouTube channel,[9][10] later stating in an interview with One News PH that "Malibog Pag Lasing" was drawn from her real-life experiences;[11] despite this, she faced an arrest warrant over alleged violations of the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 in relation to her music videos following a complaint by the Kapisanan ng Social Media Broadcasters ng Pilipinas (KSMBP) on obscenity grounds.[12] Drag queen Pura Luka Vega–who was also previously arrested for alleged blasphemy law violations in 2023 over a drag performance as Jesus Christ[13][14]–defended Fowler's right to self-expression in a post on X (formerly Twitter), stating "Why are we going after people who are expressing themselves through their art?"[15]
