Where is the love, Instagram?<\/p>\n

will.i.am<\/strong> took to social media on Saturday to share an email he had allegedly received from the photo-sharing app. According to\u00a0the Black Eyed Peas<\/a><\/strong> member, he had shared a video for the group’s song “Vibrations Pt. 1 Pt. 2;” however, Instagram allegedly removed his post and claimed he didn’t have the rights to share it.<\/p>\n

“@Instagram just sent me an email saying I don’t own my music and I’m not in the @BEP,” the recording artist wrote on Twitter. “If Ii were them[,] I’d be embarrassed\u2026I guess even the biggest companies in tech got tech problems.”<\/p>\n

He then joked he was sharing the link via Twitter instead because its founders “know what’s up.”<\/p>\n

Still, will.i.am seemed to laugh off the whole thing, writing “WTF?” “ha ha ha” and “this is funny and f— up” alongside snapshots of the alleged notification. He also included a series of laughing emojis.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
