New details coming to light in the wizkid copy right saga‘
have it that the Ojuelegba singer may be having yet another issue to
deal with, and this time it is with veteran Dancehall singer Blackface.
In a new song titled Killah, the former Plantashun Boiz star brags
about his street credibility and how he makes the parties go wild.
He also alludes that the Afro pop star allegedly stole his melody.
Blackface actually called out Wizkid on the song Killah and seeing as this is a ‘critical’ period for the youngster following the recent club fight and the recent issues involving him using lyrics and melodies without duly crediting the owners, it only makes things messier than they already are if these claims can be substantiated.
In the 4.29 seconds clip, Blackface sings in his trademark reggae-influenced style and the song has a catchy hook.
He goes:
“Industry is packed up with some wannabes,
“That’s why Wizkid try steal me melody,
“But them copycat na gat me energy,
“Me burn them and send them to the cemetery,
“Tell dem copycats them playing with fire,
“Tell dem be original or them better retire.”
The rhythm is a little fast-paced and club-ready, but by and large, it is a low-budget video clip that gets the job done.
Blackface is a seasoned Nigerian singer who was a key member of the defunct music group, Plantashun Boiz.
He is widely famed for co-writing the multi award-winning song African Queen, as well as for his lyrical contributions to the group which also had 2face Idibia and Faze.
The group broke up in the early 2000s and saw singer 2face rise to international prominence while the other members struggle to grapple with the harsh tides of swimming in the Nigerian music industry on a solo career.
