ARTIST CALLS DAVIDO OUT FOR SAMPLING HIS LOOP BEAT FOR HIS NEW SINGLE WITH OMAH LAY


ARTIST CALLS DAVIDO OUT FOR SAMPLING HIS LOOP BEAT FOR HIS NEW SINGLE WITH OMAH LAY

Artist (SEEMO Da BLACK CZAR) Demands Acknowledgement from DAVIDO for Alleged Use of Beat in New Single with Omaha Lay 

Afrobeats megastar Davido is facing heat from music insiders and fans alike after dropping what many now call a "borrowed banger" off his new Five Album. The song, "With You" featuring Omah Lay, appears to lift a distinct guitar loop from a lesser-known 2019 track titled "Gidigbo" by OG before OG - SEEMO Da Black Czar—a track originally produced by Jos-based maestro Emjoe and released in the Album Senior in 2021.

"Gidigbo", which holds the number 9 slot on the Senior Man Album released by Doo Doo Records USA and Munataray Entertainment, was a regional hit in its own right—especially across Plateau State. The song's Afro-fusion vibes and unique guitar rhythm, crafted by Emjoe and mastered by top engineer Elmore, earned it cult recognition, especially for standout tracks like "Sarkin Yaki" featuring Terry Tha Rapman.

Now, fans are pointing fingers at Davido for allegedly recycling the exact same loop without giving any credit to the original creators. Critics argue that the global star, known for his high-profile collaborations, may have overlooked or outright lifted a sound that was "Made in Jos" and packaged it as new heat "Made in the USA."

The similarities between "Gidigbo" and "With You" are hard to ignore—and as both tracks gain attention, questions are being raised about originality, intellectual property, and respect for grassroots producers.

 Listen to both tracks and decide for yourself.

2023: Catholics Berate Lalong Over Attempt To Drag Pope Into Politics

August 11, 2022  Concerned Catholics in Nigeria have called for the suspension of Plateau State Governor Simon Bako Lalong for dragging the name of Pope into local politics that has nothing to do with the Church. According to the group, Lalong should be punished for bringing the name of Pope and the Catholic Church to disrepute while giving his reasons for accepting to serve as Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Council. Speaking as a press conference in Abuja addressed by National Convener/President, Dr Ben Amodu, said the concerned Catholics in Nigeria are alarmed that Lalong would elect to throw caution into the wind by dragging the revered Catholic Church into local politics in Nigeria for whatever it is worth. “The reference to the Pope in his statement for accepting to serve as the Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Council was made in poor taste and a puerile attempt to drag the Catholic Church into a matter that has no bearing with...
