Moving on has been so hard 4 blackface.

I used to bash him till I had sometime I knew had 97% chance to give me some level of financial freedom was stolen right under my nose.

A friend did that, it didn’t reach that 97% probability but it sure helped him.

I cried more than a river but I was able 2 move on.

Put urself in his shoes, you would understand why he has been bitter all this years.
is it a song you wrote?

Blackface releases his own version of 'African Queen' after former Plantashun Boiz mate, 2face failed to give credits to him when the song became a hit and brought him to stardom. Gistmore reports

Blackface claims rights to African Queen, a rift began over who owned the rights to the hit song ‘African Queen’ after it success.

According to Blackface, he gave 2face the right to sing the song but he never got credited as a writer by the label that released it nor any acknowledgement from the singer while the song did so many numbers and won many awards since 2003/2014 till date.

However, 2face included a third verse he wrote to the music when it was produced by OJB but Blackface took that verse out and included the third he had written to make this version of his own totally written by himself .

Blackface took to his Instagram page and wrote;

This African queen wasn't written by neither blackface or 2baba. The song is one of 2pac's song that he never recorded. You all Google for 2pac's lyrics to find d truth.

Am very affirmative this guy isn't just accusing 2face for no reasonable justification.



Never judge a pain you don't feel.
For over 10 years? Seriously?! One thing U don't understand is that his refusal to let go is doing him more harm than Tuface.

This is what he should have done all along

We should appreciate each others talent

If truly he wrote it, nothing stops 2face from acknowledging him.

It wont make him a lesser man!!!
exactly my sister. 2face should've ended this fiasco since. Either an apology, m0ney or ackn0wledgement or sued black face for false accusation.

I know people like this in my life.
They fail to understand grace and have a sense of entitlement.
Grace is not intellectual theft.
If you try it abroad and they sue you for everything, the judge will not understand grace.

gal, calm down. We all love 2face, but seriously, if 2face was the good guy as portrayed, he'd have settled this issue by n0w. Look at Mark zuckerberg for example. He settled this kinda case.
So Blackface will not move on with his life because of one song? Nawao.

If 2face did not sue him for copyright, it sure means that he is the real owner of the song.

What he just did is to let the whole know 2face stole the song from him.

Nice song though with the reggae infusion.

I honestly don't care whoever wrote it- Biggie, 2pac or Fat Joe, don't bloody care. Tuface sang it, we enjoyed it, the song is in the past now-over 16 years. Everyone has moved on (including Tuface), except Blackface.

Everything tuface has today is a consequence of that song.

It is difficult to move on. Tuface has stolen his seed of greatness.

And since Tuface didn't do that, will he remain bitter about it for so long. So he has sang the same song again just to prove a point, and u say this is what he should have done all along. Really?

I checked it out.

The two of them stole somebody's song.

It's indeed tupac's work.
Word for word.


So why did tuface not give credit to whom it's due?
Maybe bc the man is late so it wasn't noticed.
Shame on tuface. Thief.
And this one ranting since yrs ago didn't know it's somebody's song or what?

Seems they planned to release the song together but tuface had another plan.
Has been wondering why he didn't sue him.
Bc they knew they can both end up paying for intellectual robbery.

What is the probability that the song in question would have blown if it was sang by Blackface. Forget it, Tuface's greatness had nothing to do with the song. It was just an avenue. Who God has blessed...u know the rest.

Damn Black face can sing. His version is rooted in reggae but the rendition and mixing quality is top notch. Had to listen with my earpiece and it was blazing. Indeed 2 face was a 2 face for doing black face dirty on this song. Black face has always been the better writer but was just not lucky with fame

I'm tired of talking about this issue. Tired of hypocritical people who don't have the ability to empathise with another who has every right to hurt. You can't judge what you do not feel.
