Recall, pop singer Danny Young also lambasted Tiwa Savage earlier this year for stealing the creative content he used in his 2009 song, ‘Oju Tiwon’, for her ‘One’ track.
Danny Young slammed Tiwa Savage with N200m infringement suit after he made sure YouTube dropped the video of ‘One’ from its platform, but it was later restored.
He posted a video on his Instagram page, showed similarities between the two songs, but he was criticized by Tiwa’s fans who accused him of seeking attention.
Danny Young said he was forced to take legal action against the songstress because he was snubbed after reaching out to her.
