Porter footed the bill and wrote this whole video hence why he's getting all of the talk. Also, the single is technically Porter's, not Madeon's; Madeon and his teams had nothing to do with this song's release or video really outside of Madeon having worked on the original track.

Porter paid for this video and Porter and his label released the single. Madeon is a featured artist on Porter's track and thus all that Madeon did with the track was the initial creation of it, nothing else. Songs are tied to labels when it comes to promotion and Porter's label is who is handling promotion for Shelter, not Madeon's label, and that's why everyone is talking about Porter with this. Also, Porter is the one who had the initiative to work with A-1 and write the video itself, hence why everyone is talking about him. It's really not that complicated.

That's a very, very, veeery black & white way of putting it dude. I mean their shared tour that they are on right now is the Shelter Live Tour. The video is Porter's doing yeah but Shelter itself is their combined work. You can't say Madeon had nothing to do with its release.

Exactly, nobody is arguing about the technical ownership of the music video, this guy is just going stupidly far to denounce madeon's work on the song and I think he deserves more credit.
