First of all, the NBC does not ban songs. We only insist that broadcasters exercise a sense of responsibility in the kind of content they allow to go on air. So even if the NBC has placed such a restriction on any of these songs, it does not constitute a ban.
They can still be played at nightclubs, streamed on the Internet, played at home and on people's mobile devices. But I am not aware of the NBC releasing any list banning or putting a restriction on any of those five songs. It is also possible that one of our regional offices advised stations under their jurisdiction about these songs and it is now being misinterpreted as a ban.
"If you look at the report, you would know there was something fishy about it because the NBC is the National Broadcasting Commission and not a "Corporation" as being reported by the media outlets disseminating the news."
