The ongoing conflict between musicians Kingsley Okonkwo, better known as KCee, and Chinedu Okoli, better known as Flavour N’abania, was recently discussed by Nigerian blogger Tosin Silverdam.
When Flavour implied that KCee was copying his music, the argument started. KCee responded by criticizing Flavour.
Similar to his charges against KCee, Tosin Silverdam claimed in a recent Instagram post that Flavour is also guilty of song piracy.
He asserted that a large number of Flavour’s songs are actually samples of other musicians rather than original compositions.
He said:
“Do you know that most of Flavour’s songs are not original? They are copied, they are samples.”
Speaking further, Silverdam added that while there was nothing wrong with sampling people’s songs, Flavour should not have called someone else out for copying his songs. In his words:
“There’s nothing wrong with sampling songs but for the fact that he was even saying someone is copying him whereas you yourself, you dey copy. Most of his songs, most of his discography, they’re all copied. ”
In the video, Tosin Silverdam shared the snippets from some of the songs Flavour took inspiration from to make his own hit tracks. They include Sawale by Cardinal Rex Jim Lawson, Naomi by Okoro Bobo, My Sweety by Bunny Mack, She’s My Choice by Sweet Breeze, She’s Gone by Bob Marley, Osondi Owendi by Osita Osadebe and more.
