Blackface finally drops own version of controversial African Queen
Singer, Blackface, seems ready to move on from his tussle with former
band mate, 2baba, over a track titled African Queen. Blackface who
co-wrote the song had accused 2baba, who popularised the track, of
stealing it from him.
Well, moving forward, Blackface has now released his own version of
the controversial track.
His version sounds very similar to the one sang by 2baba except the
third verse.
According to reports, Blackface explained that he gave the initial
singer the right to sing the song but never got credited as the writer
by the label.
Explaining further, Blackface added that he removed the third verse
2baba added to the song when it was produced by OJB and added his own
original lyrics making this version a complete original.
He said: “The singer (2baba) included a third verse he wrote to the
music when it was produced by OJB but I took that verse out and
included the third I had written to make this version of mine totally
written by self .”
