Yes blackface claimed his song was stolen and yet some ppl dey praise 2face for tht dastardly act

As if ntn is wrong with it

How will u feel if somebdy else steal ur work ?

Will u feel aphy

Don't mind all these little thieves on nairaland. Intellectual property is still property. Tuface should have secured permission from Blackface instead of stealing.

You can't be making money from another person's sweat without agreement and still come out bragging. That's theft.

newsarena:
A few days ago 2face’s manager Efe Omoregbe released an official press statement addressing Blackface’s allegations that his song was stolen by 2face. Efe in his statement, said Blackface and 2face co-wrote the said song, adding that the former is only seeking cheap publicity for his newly released song, Killa.
Blackface has responded to Omoregbe in a written reply on his IG page. He stated that Efe’s claim that he only wrote a part of the song was wrong, that they stole his song and wrote a wack second verse for it. Read his statement below...

Cheap publicity is the word,blackface nids help

Some people just make comments sentimentally because they love tuface. At least have sense and be fair. He started the song ,so he wrote it. Tuface sang it and there was no credit to the original writer. It's just like tuface is using his money and fame to intimidate him, and all you guys can't see that cos u r blinded.

Matured people will never reason like the way some of you are reasoning.
Imagine, an adult man being revealing the secrets that his written songs were stolen, more also he wrote the Africa queen song and he gave 2 face the permission to sing it, yet you guys refusing to acknowledge sense in his words.

When will some people think well.
Black face has the right to call into questioning the audacity 2 face masterminded to sing his composed songs when he granted no permission to him.

You guys should acknowledge sense in what he's telling.

I wonder why people seems to leave the real issues and face irrelevant point of debate..plagiarism is bad..this nonsense should stop pls..:If we don't condemn it, it can happen to your love ones one day..wiz kid stole OJUELEGBA from dammykrane..OLAMIDE stole DONT STOP from dbanj. Davido stole GOBE from password...pls pls pls. Dis nonsense must stop. Habba

nigerians lets stp allowing emotions becloud or judgements,everyone was doubting blackface initially saying he's looking fr cheap publicity,bt nw 2face's manager admits he wrote d first verse,dey v no right to use dt verse without his permission.i understand 2face is a likeable persn but dt doesnt mke him infallible,if he's wrng ppl shld let him knw.Anybdy cn steal a song wether star or upcoming.Blackface has a strng case here nd he shld b listened to

am just speechless after all the insult blackface receive from people now the truth is out what will you haterz say now?

Black face..writing hit upon hit songs back to back..yet him never blow...

do you know if that was the song that was destined for his eventual " blow?"...

Psalm18:
3 friends started out
2 dropped out
1keeps shining.
It's only natural the other two friends get envious at the progress of the one shining.

Tuface should acknowledge this dude and pay him his dues if he has not already.

Blackface should henceforth ensure he gets his lyrics copyrighted so nobody 'steals it'

I believe tuface is also the youngest of the trio- blackface must really be pained seeing how far tuface has gone on to better things.

The pic is the group way back in 2000

Please don't make out Faze as a failure. Even though he did not blow like 2face, he had 2 hit songs. Please what song did Blackface sing that blew?!

Blackface is just a hungry boy, while Faze has made use of the little popularity. Kolomental won him to be comfortable and disappear from the music scene. They are very different!

but it seems black face is a good song writer though, may be he should concentrate more in that area.
some pple are born natural artist and performer... it seems he is none of such, so if writing songs is what befits him, then let him face it.

Blackface....2face is still ur brother, abeg settle with him ur misunderstanding...

cruzita:
make this guy chill na ,we don tore for this nonsense steal stole stolen songs

I think you should stop this! This is a serious crime. Tuface shot into stardom with his first song(African Queen) and now this.

Songs are actually the first verse. Once you got the rhythm, you can write hundreds of other verses to flow along. Tuface should pay this guy in millions.

In civilized world, Tuface will be bankrupted for this single action.

omofunaab:
I didn't know blackface wrote 'African queen' until now

he did.. He almost sued 2face some years ago for stealing that song

omofunaab:
I didn't know blackface wrote 'African queen' until now

you can imagine the robbery done to blackface. Too bad

JonJay:

brother my foot. But 2face didn't recognize him as one ..if not he would have contacted him to get permission before stealing his song...

Chiccly:
Song wey dem don use make money finish na him you dey rant about.

Continue!

we don't need people of myopic view to issues like you on this forum..

Love to Blackface for standing up I know how it feels when people steal from you and don't give you credit but God always has away of showing up cheer up Black face your works won't go to waste

[size=14pt]I am anything but a Blackface fan, I believe he ruined his life with steadily OD'ing on reefer
But for Tuface to steal the song and still attempt ridiculing the oppressed?!
Funny thing is most people are siding with Tuface on this
A clear indication that there is absolutely no justice in this world.
No good or bad, only weak and strong!
leave judgement for baba God everybody
GET YOURS![/size]

blackface has sole right to is songs 2face need to respct that nd that was wut the guy was askin for RESPECT,if u get money u no get mine join nau

nigerians will always support d man wit d money.
as much as i rate 2baba as naija number 1
it is very true he n wizpikin stole from black face its so obvious black face is a better songwriter anytime anyday
n no b only black face de smoke weed even 2face smokes weed too n all other artist.

flip d face to face album most of d songs were written by Ojb jezreel n blackface.

tuface is d most succesfull artist true but he cant write song true also

u r a fool, who b hungry boy na ur papa dey feed am u didnt hear ahead of d game n hardlife
faze ur broda is a whack artist

Bigpicture:
IMO.... Blackface is being childish with the whole thing:

If truly your song was stolen, I wanna believe there was no beef between you guys initially... u culd av just called 2baba for a chat over it nd agree on what to do
.

Or, file a lawsuit to claim your right...

Or, state clearly what you want in return instead of ranting on social media which will keep degrading you anyway.

#okbye

And you know he hasn't confronted him is private before going public how? Be sure of the facts before you make any statements.

tuface stole ur song nt Tubaba..jungle don mature

Holyfield1:
LIKE if Blackface's Verse is the best and SHARE if 2face's

VERSE 1:
Baby I can see u feeling kind of blue
I see you need someone to comfort you
I can’t understand why you are pushing love away
When that’s what you need each and everyday
There’s no one alive who doesn’t need love (yeah)
Open your heart
And baby my baby try to understand
I’ll be your man
I’ll be by your side until the end
I’ll treasure your love like it was from above
Now all you get to do
Na just


VERSE 2:
Gentleness, ruggedness, anyhow that you want it
Girl I got it come and get it
Don’t be shy don’t hold back
Let somebody hold your body
Let that somebody be me
Let’s be gentle Let’s be wild
Let’s do it gladly enter style
In the kitchen on the bed on the floor and in the air
Call me girl and I’ll be there
You guarantee to scream uh yea
Like a diamond in the rock
You need to let your light shine
All you need is good good loving….

Which song lyrics is this?

joeybillz:
tuface stole ur song nt Tubaba..jungle don mature

who the youngest is amongst dem, I don't know but d truth remains, blackface was d brain behind plantashun boiz den cos he contributed majorly like 80% of their whole work den, moreover blackface was actually tuface's senior back den in sec sch and not mate. He also brought tuface to lag back den in 1996 and they both live with Blackface's uncle, even if tuface did not steal his song, tuface oaught not to forget blackface cos he played a vital role in d welfare of tuface when he just came to lag. it's like wishing ur helper bad! listen to most of Blackface's music and u see messages in there, he doesn't just sing he's also an activist! Wishing him all d best in life as I wish my self too. so don't say bad thing about him again pls

If it was Blackface who sang those songs-"Africa queen or Let somebody loves you".....d songs no go blow pass balloon.So Tubaba stealing them is a blessing.Thank God they were stolen so dat d world could hear d songs.

Who God don bless, leave it! No man fit curse. Blackface no vex

If Blackface wrote the first verse, then he wrote the song, cause the hardest part of a song is the first verse. Once you write the first verse every other verse fall in shape with little effort.

Talking from experience.......

NB: Generally, Nigerian musicians can't write quality songs, these days, except Asha's jailer. But, honestly, 2face is a good lyricist and his flow is good, but I don't find quality in the song content itself. This's why he haven't got noticed by a major international record label.
