Ángela Aguilar, a leading regional Mexican singer, is facing a new controversy after the release of her single “Nadie se va como llegó”, presented on April 16, 2025.
Users on social networks have pointed out similarities between this song and “Tuya”, a song performed by Jennifer Peña in 2007, and this is not the first time this has happened to Pepe Aguilar’s daughter… she has even been accused of copying Adele.
Comparisons between “Nadie se va como llegó” and “Tuya”.
The controversy arose when users on platforms such as TikTok and X (formerly Twitter) shared fragments of both songs, highlighting similarities in the melodic line, especially in the chorus.
Although the lyrics address different themes-“Tuya” celebrates requited love, while “Nadie se va como llegó” explores heartbreak-the comparisons have generated intense online debate.
The controversy has provoked a wave of comments on social networks.
Some users have expressed criticism of Aguilar, while others defend his work, arguing that the similarities could be coincidences or common influences in the genre.
So far, neither Ángela Aguilar nor Jennifer Peña have issued official statements on the matter.
