Kcee vows to sue music composer Igwe Credo over alleged refusal to pay royalty for Ojapiano

Singer and songwriter Kingsley Okonkwo, famously known as Kcee, has vowed to sue musician Igwe Credo for accusing him of not adequately compensating him for their ‘Ojapiano’ collaboration.

The accusation is coming five months after the release of Kcee’s hit song ‘Ojapiano’.

In June, the 44-year-old released ‘Ojapiano’ to critical acclaim.

The song was released with the traditional artiste Igwe Credo and flutist Ojazzy.

Despite earlier speculation that the artistes who were flown in from the east to record the song in Lagos were not adequately compensated, Kcee said that there was no love lost between them.

However, in a recent development, Igwe Credo revealed that the ‘Limpopo’ singer had not compensated him for utilising his sound.

In an interview on the Gbamii podcast by Yan Kontent Factory, Credo revealed that he and his crew only received N200,000 from Kcee after promising to pay them more money, but they have yet to do so.

However, reacting to the accusation in a video shared via Instagram on Tuesday night, Kcee expressed displeasure at Igwe Credo’s action and shared receipts of the payment he made to the latter at different times, which amounted to N1,290,000.

He also vowed to take the matter to court.
