In from Ahmed Boulor . . .
YBNL honcho Olamide has been accused of copyright theft by Divine Austen Peters better known as Deevee who makes beats for D’Banj. The producer lashed out on Olamide on Twitter for allegedly plagiarising song ideas from DB Records run by the ‘Kokomaster’.

The producer spilled his guts at Olamide on Twitter saying the artiste always steals a song idea each time he comes visiting their recording studio.

‘’With due respect Olamide, have you run out of ideas? Every time you come to our zones you always gotta steal some idea. I won’t let this fly’’.

The producer was obviously referring to ‘Don’t Stop’, one of Olamide’s latest single which he believes is similar to D’banj’s ‘Shake It’.

Deevee also claimed that Olamide also stole slangs such as ‘Durosoke’ and ‘Baddest Guy Ever Liveth’ from D’Banj s camp.

Though D’Banj has chosen to stay quite over the issue, many believe the producer is speaking the mind of the former co-founder of Mo Hits Records.
Olamide’s camp is yet to reply the claims of the producer who says he is not going to let this particular episode to be swept under the carpet.
