Nigerian Afrobeats singer, Damini Ogulu also known as Burna Boy, has been called out for allegedly copying the title and lyrics of an unknown artiste`s song.
The Grammy winner was alleged to have sampled ”˜Common Person` from an artiste known as MC Olopka who also gave his track the same title.
A PR specialist, Sakpo called out Burna and drew the attention of netizens to his discovery and shared a video on microblogging site, Twitter to backup his claim.
The clip he uploaded was a music video for MC Olokpa`s own version of the song which the African Giant was called out for sampling.
Sakpo tweeted; “So the common person supposed sample was a cover, it looked so convincing if we put Burna history with Sampling into consideration.
