Omah Lay calls out colleague for stealing his album concept

Nigerian singer Omah Lay has alleged that a colleague he shared the idea of what was supposed to be his next album with, stole the idea to make his own album.

He mentioned that he had shared the concept with a colleague, as they had intended to collaborate. However, the artist ended up releasing an album using the same idea he had shared. During an interview on the Zach Sang Show, Omah Lay revealed that this situation led him to re-record his own album

“My song ‘Holy Ghost’ is a new sound. I was going to make the whole album with the new sound but along the line, I changed my mind,” he said.

“I shared an idea with a certain artist and the artist went ahead and put out an album with my idea and I had to re-record my album.

“He came to me and I accepted for us to collaborate. Of course, it’s an artist that I love. And I told him where I’m headed with the sound. Five months later, he put out an album with exactly all the same sound that I shared with him.

‘’I had to go back and remake my album which is actually going to be the greatest album of all time in Afrobeats history.”
