Veteran musician, Konga has accused Grammy-winning artist Burna Boy of using his lyrics and rhythm without acknowledgment.
In a video shared on his TikTok page, Konga pointed out that Burna Boy mentioned his name in the “Sungba Remix” and also used elements of his style and lyrics in the song “Update”.
While he expressed appreciation for Burna Boy’s admiration of his work, Konga made it clear that he wanted proper recognition.
As compensation, he requested Burna Boy to collaborate with him 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]. And in your new release, I noticed that you also used some of my lines and even my rhythm,” Konga said in the video.
He continued, “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.”
