Burna Boy accused of stealing Portable’s intellectual property
Habeeb Okikiola, also known as Portable, a controversial fast-rising singer, has slammed Grammy winner Burna Boy for using his intellectual property.
Portable recalled how Burna Boy used his photo to advertise his record in a video he recently released on his Instagram page, and how he recently utilized his ‘Akoi’ lingo.
Instead of utilizing him for “promotion,” Portable requested the Grammy winner to collaborate with him.
“Uncle Burna abeg, shey you wan help me ni or you wan rip me. I use God beg you, shey make we sing ni abi you just dey use me do promotion. Na so you use my picture promote your album. Now you come dey sing akoi grace, akoi mercy, blessing follow me.
“Abeg, make we make song abeg. No ripping o, uncle Burna make we collabo. No rip me,” he said in a video also posted via his Instagram page on Wednesday.
The singer also took use of the occasion to request a song from Burna Boy rather than using his property without his permission.
He captioned the video he posted with his verified account with the statement below:
“I need to know what’s up…Letz link up Dis is not a Cruise matter @burnaboygram Street Ti Take Over Akoi Industreet letz give them 1 banger…Akoi Grace Akoi space Akoi mercy Akoi blessing Akoi Bizza Bizza🔥 No ripping Zone💯”
