K.O has released a statement in response to the allegation of stealing his hit song, Sete.
On Tuesday, the rapper was dragged for plagiarism as there are two other songs that sound like the record-breaking song.
Returning to Twitter, K.O said he bought the beat of the song.
How artists/beatmakers collab in today’s largely virtual music industry… I bought the #SETE beat on an online platform via @Calliemajik‘s page (original producer). Discovered other artists had used it so we replaced some of sounds to make mine unique,” he wrote.
The rap star further schooled people on about the game.
“I hold full Unlimited Rights to the License of the instrumental I bought which is why the artists who also put out their own versions rightfully cannot disputed mine cos we’re all governed by the same or lesser Copyright. Normal practice in today’s music world,” he added.
