Nigerian artist Kcee has publicly called out fellow artist Flavour, accusing him of implying that Kcee copied his style in his latest song release.
The feud started when fans noticed similarities between Kcee’s new track and Flavour’s hit song titled “Doings.” Flavour addressed the issue on Twitter with the comment “Copy copy akaria” (meaning too much copying) without directly mentioning Kcee.
Kcee responded to Flavor’s comment on his X page, criticizing Flavour’s accusations. He emphasized that Igbo music style is not exclusive to one artist and cannot be gatekept. Kcee warned Flavour to choose battles wisely, stating they are not on the same level.
Kcee responded saying ,“Igbo music belongs to all, not one custodian. I’ve been in this game before you. My music celebrates our heritage unapologetically.” Flavor is yet to respond to Kcess comment.
This heated exchange between the two artists has sparked industrydebates about originality and influence.
