  • [Video]Fact Check: Did Kizz Daniel steal “Buga lyrics” from trending video on social media?

    “Buga”, Afrobeat musician Kizz Daniel, hit single, has got many Nigerians all groovy by the tune of the song. He released the song on May 4th 2022 and featured Tekno. It has become one of the most Shazam songs in the world.

It is used to identify music, movies, advertising, and television shows, based on a short sample played and using the microphone on the device. They made this known through their official Twitter page, congratulating the Nigerian star.

    However, there is a trending video on social media which is rumoured to be the source of Kizz Daniel’s “Buga” lyrics.

    In the video, an albino was seen playing the guitar and singing melodiously using words like “Buga” which was used in Kizz Daniel’s song and coincidentally is the title of his hit release “Buga”.

    Thenewsguru.com did a fact check to confirm the authentication of this rumour, after much research and consultation, Thenewsguru.com found out that the video originated from a remote area in Delta state.

    The trending video is over a year old, making it the first music video to trend online before Kizz Daniels “Buga” hit single, and coincidentally words like “Buga”, ” Shoulder up” was first used in the video.

    Having noted this, it is safe to say that Kizz Daniel got inspirational lyrics for his “Buga” singles from the trending video.

    I’m not surprised Chrisland’s female student had s3x at 10yrs – Seun Kuti

    Outspoken Afrobeat singer, Seun Kuti has shared his thought on a viral video of Chrisland’s 10-year-old female student, saying young people now engage in sex faster than before.

    He said everything in Nigeria is centred around sex and children are inundated with sexual images from songs to sex tapes online, therefore parents should stop “forming saints” and teach their children about sex.

    He added that: 14-year-olds had sex in his own generation and that it was no surprise that the age for indulging in sexual activity has now dropped this generation.

    His post on Instagram read: “ Everything in Nigeria is centred around sex. Children are inundated with sexual images. All the songs the media feeds them everything is hyper-sexualised. Sex tapes of their media role models are everywhere coupled with the internet.

    “Just start sex education early instead of forming saints. In my generation, most 14-year-olds were already doing it or planning to do it. I am not surprised the age dropped.”

    What should happen to my body when I die – Femi Kuti

    Afrobeat musician, Femi Kuti has said he wants his body to be cremated when he dies.

    Kuti said he wants the funeral attended by close friends and family members without a loud burial ceremony.

    The son of late Afrobeat legend, Fela Anikulapo Kuti disclosed this at the New Africa Shrine during his performance on Sunday.

    The 59-year-old singer said, “When I die, please cremate me, burn my body. It is the most hygienic way. Have you all thought about Ikoyi cemetery, this Lagos has been in existence for let’s just say 60 years and people die, if they don’t die today, they will die tomorrow and that burial ground has never been full and if you check it, it is not like it’s 1 million acres since I was little when we used to bury people there.”
