Controversy Fowler, who is dubbed by critics as the Philippines' equivalent to Cardi B, gained viral notoriety and controversy for her sexually-charged content particularly in her music videos, most notably the single "M.P.L. (Malibog Pag Lasing)" ; which was also criticised for its alleged objectification of women bordering towards fetishism and pornography.

Fowler maintains that the videos are only intended for adults and are set as age-restricted on her YouTube channel, later stating in an interview with One News PH that "Malibog Pag Lasing" was drawn from her real-life experiences; despite this, she faced an arrest warrant over alleged violations of the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 in relation to her music videos following a complaint by the Kapisanan ng Social Media Broadcasters ng Pilipinas (KSMBP) on obscenity grounds. Drag queen Pura Luka Vega–who was also previously arrested for alleged blasphemy law violations in 2023 over a drag performance as Jesus Christ –defended Fowler's right to self-expression in a post on X (formerly Twitter), stating "Why are we going after people who are expressing themselves through their art?"

Following controversy over her reputation for her sexually-charged music, Fowler released the song "Pribado" featuring Tito Vince & Papi Galang on October 31, 2025. In contrast to her previous singles which were aimed at mature audiences, "Pribado" is billed as a nursery rhyme intended to educate children about child sexual abuse, consent and parental supervision. Although the song made explicit mentions of Tagalog slang terms for genitalia, it received mostly positive critical reception with netizens praising Fowler for tackling a sensitive topic involving minors.
