» 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.
