Copyright infringement: YouTube takes down Tiwa Savage’s video
There are indications that YouTube has taken down the video of Tiwa Savage’s song, ‘One’.
The video-sharing and streaming site took down the video following claims by artiste, Danny Young that his 2008 single ‘Oju Tiwon’ was copyrighted by the former.
Danny Young had taken to social media to publicly call out Tiwa Savage, for intellectual property theft.
The singer had accused Tiwa of stealing contents from his song titled ‘Oju Tiwon’, which he released in 2009.
The said content had been used in the female singer’s hit song ‘One’. The video, shot in Lagos by Clarence Peters, has been taken down from the singer’s channel.
It is believed that Danny Young has reported the matter to the Youtube ‘courts’ who have been known for their zero tolerance to any perceived case of violated copyright laws.
Tiwa Savage is yet to react to the development.
