Kuami Eugene accused of song theft again
Highlife musician, Kuami Eugene, is back in the news over allegations of song theft.
A budding musician, Bhadext Cona, is accusing the ‘rockstar’ of stealing her song titled, Bolga.
According to her, she sent the song ‘Bolga’ to the singer for a feature but he declined describing the song as ‘childish’
“I don’t want to talk about Kuami Eugene because I am better than he is. He is not better than I am. I am a great musician than he is. If you can steal my song and remake it into a new song, then I am far superior to you are,” she claimed.
“So far as he stole my song, then it proves that I am better than he is. He is aware that he stole my song but I don’t want to talk about it,” she added.
The Nigerian artiste, Oduma Essan, reportedly sued Kuami Eugene for allegedly plagiarizing his song.
Oduma said Kuami Eugene took his song, Show Body, and re-worked it without permission. He would therefore pursue the case until he is satisfied.
“I feel so sad. I am not happy and what he has done to me he has done it to a lot of people. I believe this is the time we should put a stop to this thing. He should have acknowledged me as the originator and owner of the song,” he said at the time.
“You don’t go and steal my song and bring it back and say it’s your song, he added.
