Veteran Nigerian singer Konga has publicly accused Grammy-winning artiste Burna Boy of using his lines and rhythm in some of his songs without proper credit.
In a video message shared on his TikTok page, Konga pointed out that Burna Boy name-dropped him in the remix of Asake’s “Sungba” and also allegedly borrowed from his style in the song “Update.”
Expressing his concerns, Konga called for fair recognition and proposed a collaboration as a form of compensation. He specifically requested Burna Boy and Tiwa Savage to feature on the remix of his song “Kabakaba.”
“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.
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.”
