In June 2024, Maestro Ziikos faced a significant setback when many of his videos were taken down due to copyright strikes. Despite not having used any original samples or sounds from the songs, his covers were flagged and removed. Maestro Ziikos suggested that the issue might stem from music companies not wanting their music associated with Donald Trump. This situation left him feeling overwhelmed and concerned about the future of his YouTube channel, as the copyright strikes threatened its existence. The artist reached out for help and suggestions on social media, expressing his frustration and heartbreak over the loss of his creative content.1
