The musician Konga has criticised Burna Boy, a Grammy winner, for allegedly utilising his lines and rhythm in some of his songs.
Konga said that Burna Boy, who collaborated with Asake on the remix of “Sungba,” name-dropped him.
The singer, whose true name is Lawal Olalekan Olumo, also asserted that some of his phrases and rhythm were included in Burna Boy’s recent album “Update.”
In a video message shared on social media and addressed to Burna Boy, Konga disclosed that while he appreciates the admiration, he expects compensation.
Konga demanded that Burna Boy feature on the remix of his song ‘Kabakaba,’ alongside Tiwa Savage.
“I’m calling Burna Boy out. Burna Boy, this video is for you because you name-dropped me in your song with Asake ‘Sungba Remix,’” he said.
“And in your new release, I noticed that you also used some of my lines and even my rhythm.
“It’s obvious that you like my vibe and you’ve been playing with a whole lot of my flow, and I appreciate that. I love the fact that you’re using my craft, and I appreciate it, but I want you and Tiwa Savage on Kabakaba Remix.
“I will be expecting your feedback. I call you out in peace.”
