Singer Precious Agbede a.k.a Brymo has called on the likes of Burna Boy, Davido and other established stars to stop sampling songs done by emerging Afrobeats stars.
Brymo in a post on his Instagram story pointed out that some mainstream artistes often jump on trending tracks, claiming to support the originals, but he described this as unnecessary and unfair.
He stressed that such actions could affect how young artistes learn about the business and establish their place in the Nigerian music scene.
He said: “Dear Nigerian mainstream ‘A-listers,’ Burna [Boy], Davido and Co, stop jumping on every hit song in a remix, especially releases by newer acts.
“Let other artistes find their own way. The pretending to be helping them reach higher is a ridiculous watch.
“Stop seeking relevance in the efforts of ones who know little about the business. It’s vile!”
