Nigerian singer Seyi-Shay who is currently in Jamaica claimed on a Television interview that Wizkid actually wrote and owns the song ‘One dance’ by Drake.
This came after the interviewer talked about Drake sampling dancehall songs.
“The same debate is going on in Africa right now, that he sampled the Afrobeats, It was actually Wizkid’s song so it was not Drake’s song, I don’t know if I can I talk about this but it’s actually Wizkid’s song, Wizkid wrote it, Legendary Beats and some other Nigerian producers produced it as an Afrobeat song and they stripped a lot of the music away…” Seyi explained.
Wizkid in reaction to Seyi Shay’s claims says:
Love my girl Seyi Shay regardless.

In a bid to rescue the situation, Seyi Shay has issued an apology, claiming that she was misinformed and spoke based on ‘hear say’.
