Nigerian Producer Accuses Davido & Dammy Krane Of ‘Stealing’ His Original Beat Composition

Music star, Davido has been called out by a Nigerian producer named HOD for allegedly ‘stealing’ the production for his record, ‘Pere’ featuring Young Thug and Rae Sremmund. The Sony Music singer was accused of jacking the production without credit and using it without compensation.‘Pere’ was released under Sony Music Entertainment International Limited. Its production is credited to DJ Mustard, a popular American record producer, songwriter and DJ from Los Angeles. But HOD claims the production is his. According to him, he made the beat for singer Dammy Krane, a Davido Music Worldwide affiliate, who he claims recorded the song ‘Pere’ in 2015.“Only for me to press play on Davido’s new song last night and I hear the same f**king song Dammy Krane recorded with me in 2015! Why??” HOD wrote in a series of tweets, which he has since deleted. How long will upcoming producers be stepped upon? So because I am not known, you gave the song to Davido and my beat to DJ Mustard? I have well documented proof by the way. Shame on Sony for not being professional about this too. I’m sure they felt this was just another unknown African producer,” HOD wrote.
