A cultural music group, United Boys Culture, has called out popular singer, Timaya over alleged song theft.

The group claimed that Timaya’s latest song ‘Dey Your Dey’ sampled their song of the same title without their permission.

The leader of the group, who spoke in a video message shared via their Tiktok page, appealed to Timaya to stop stealing their intellectual properties, stressing that the singer had previously sampled another of their songs titled ‘As E Dey Sweet Us, E Dey Pain Dem.’

He said: “I want to use this opportunity to call on our brother, Mr. Timaya. I am the leader of United Boys Culture of Etche, Rivers State. We are the original owners of the song, ‘Dey Your Dey.’ I want to plead with you, you know that the song has been trending since October last year. If you want to remix our song, you are supposed to seek our permission.

“But you just went ahead to remake the song. That was how you remake ‘As E Dey Sweet Us, E Dey Pain Dem’ without our permission. Please, leave our songs. I am begging you, Mr. Timaya.” [sic]

Timaya is yet to react to the allegations.
