Finally, Blackface Reveals What He Wants From 2Baba

The crisis currently being witnessed in the Nigerian
entertainment industry is taking a new turn as the day
goes by and while some issues are being put to rest, some
are beginning to come up.
Latest of such issues has been the allegation of song theft
between Blackface and 2Baba and Wizkid.
Blackface who has been in the news lately over the
allegation feels 2Baba whom they have been together
from day one is not treating him fairly after making hits
with some of his works.
Not being specific about some of the songs, during an
interview with TVC morning programme, Your View,
monitored by Nigeriafilms.com, where he was a celebrity
guest, the singer stated that he does not want anything
from 2Baba but just simple acknowledgment either from
him or any other person using his works.
In his words, “2face feels I am someone you can trample
upon. I am one person that have thought these guys how
to be a good song writer and thought them the rudiments
of music, yet they will just see one as nothing.
I am not expecting anything from 2face just simple
credits. Just like when Kennis music signed him, they did
‘African Queen’ and I was not given credit and that took
them time.”
Blackface was later advised that rather than continually
have issues with artistes over song theft, he should rather
make it a business whereby he writes and give the likes
of Omawumi to sing but he was not comfortable with the
idea as he cleared the air that he is not a freelance
writer.
“No. There are people we call freelance writer and I am
not such a person. I have people I am writing for and
then I know we have an agreement together so I can’t
just write song for anybody,” he added.
