I was talking to someone sometime ago, and they brought this to my notice. If you know both, sing them and you'll hear the same thing:

"No body want to see us together"
"It's the remix to ignition"

"Nobody thought we'd last forever"
"It's hot and fresh out the kitchen"

"I see them hoping and praying"
"Mama rolling that body"

"Things between us don't get better"
"Got every man in here wishing"

"Men steady coming after you"
"Sipping on coke and rum"

"Women steady coming after me"
"I'm like so what I'm drunk"

"It's like everybody want to go for self"
"It's the freaking weekend baby"

"And don't want to respect boundary"
"I'm about to have me some fun"

SEE? Very few of these artists are original. I'll give you more later, but meanwhile, DON'T ASK.

Hmm,

U call that copying?

If thats copying then that makes all 9jah artist that even use foreign beats what ?

get your facts right before posting dude cos that definately aint copying

Its allowed. I mean if that can be called "copying" then what do we call sampling.

in music, its allowed as long as the lyrics are diiferent.

@poster,don't even say that again, What do u mean the Almighty talented Akon copied R.KELLY,wetin R.kelly dey sing,
Don't let me hear u say that again,

R. Kelly is crap. . .anyone could sing his best song their worst and sound better than him.

odada, it seems that post hit you real hard. Why? So if it's not copying, what's it?

tunmininu, I believe I'm misinterpreting you. All sorts of crazy comparisons go on on Nairaland. First it was 2Face and Usher, and now someone is comparing Akon with R.Kelly. I don't think I want to comment, because if I start, I won't stop.

U don't know anything about music

See confusion! Comparing my 2 favorite artists of all time? Any which way, the title goes to kels cos that dude is so versatile.

It simply aint copying dude! @ mactao

@topic
umm, i really wouldn't call that copyin' 'cause i see no relationship between the two lyrics just the sound/rhythm. As for those "R.kelly can't sing" comments, wow, that is beyond my understanding.

Ha!

OHMIGOD!!!
I refuse to believe that I've been getting insults because of people's ignorance. Read my first post, it said: If you know them, sing them both.
AH!!!

@, i think akon was aware of that and so was other people.

Contrary to your opinion, I like Akon. But, the truth must be told.

@, i think akon was aware of that and so was other people

Exactly my point. Nobody is trying to crucify Akon here.

@youngedice$

@mactao

R.Kelly dont have a best song.Everything hes done is nothing but hit except your confusing him with Kelly Rowland who is not evn crap like you said.
