By Patricia Uyeh
G-Worldwide artistes, Kiss Daniel and Sugar boy have been accused of stealing their newly released single ” Kilamity” by Silent Music Company(TSMC).
The song which was produced by LuisAMG, is expected to be housed on Sugarboy’s forthcoming debut album “Believe.” However, the Silent Music Company (TSMC) is accusing G-Worldwide of theft of the song. They have called out G-Worldwide Entertainment acts Kiss Daniel and Sugarboy over alleged theft of its artiste Barz‘s song – ‘Kilamiti’.
According to TSMC, Barz featured Sugarboy in the song which was released in June 2016, explaining that Sugarboy said due to his management’s “policy on featuring” he won’t be in the video. TSMC claimed that the video was shot without Sugarboy, adding that it was released last November.
They also claimed that Sugarboy and Kiss Daniel released “a copyright” of Barz’ song with the title “Kilamity” which was produced by the same LuisAMG who produced “Kilamiti”. The video of the song was released via Youtube, and Sugarboy was not present in it.
Read their statement posted on Instagram today:
“We at “The Silent Music Company” TSMC, will like the general public to be aware of the injustice brought our way by G worldwide Ent, home record label to Kiss Daniel and Sugarboy.
A song titled ‘kilamiti’ was created by our artist BARZ, produced by LuisAMG and had Sugarboy of G worldwide featured on the song.
We contacted Sugarboy’s management when we wanted to drop the song back in June 2016 and we have chat evidence of sugarboy telling me and I quote “my management get strict policy on featuring. Abi u don see kiss daniel on any song wey dem feature am? but una fit drop the song, i no go fit dey the video sha”
The song was later dropped on all the major blogs in Nigeria, Ghana and UK and promoted on June 11 2016. Most of the radio stations in Nigeria have played this song, the video was also shot by Director Q and dropped November 2016 without Sugarboy involved, and the video has been promoted and played on vaious platforms and TV stations.
Today a copyright of our artiste’s song was dropped by Sugarboy feat Kiss Daniel titled ‘Kilamity’ as against “Kilamiti” with the aid of same producer LuisAMG. (We also have prove of online banking transfer showing we paid off the producer for his job done).
We are making this press release because we want the general public to know the injustice which have been done to us and our business.
We definitely will have our lawyer look into this matter and will share with the world on its progress. Thank you for your time.”
