Who Really Stole Omah Lay's Album Idea? Rema or Victony?

#omahlay #rema #naijanews
Omah Lay was on the Zach Sang show and revealed that another afrobeats artiste stole his idea. Rema and Victony have been mentioned. Llona has also been mentioned but who really could it be? Asake?

[@ZharinAghani]

Its Rema, he stole his guy laptop

[@user-ky6wu5do1d]

Nah i don't think it's rema because heis album is not even like omay lay

[@babybwoy98]

I think he is referring to Victony Just go and listen to victony's "Stubborn" and Omah's new song "Moving" there are some kind of similarities in the sounds

[@sabina2383]

Bruh your earthquake comment was so funny lmao 🤣🤣🤣

[@_Lesplay]

It's a supernatural earthqauke🤣🤣

[@UjerekreGoodnews]

Truth be told, rema is not the first person to have the idea of making afrobeat more original, but he's the first person to achieve it successfully without fear, it's just like the wright brothers they were not the first to conceive the idea of making an aeroplane, while others failed they were the first to bring it to life, what omahlay is doing now is playing the role of glen Curtis,Rema has raised the bar of afrobeats so high, no one is stopping it from going higher but bringing up conspiracy theories is not the way forward. For starters everything omahlay said in that interview has already been said by rema egApple music interview, afrobeat has already been saved,all that remains is that we keep maintaining our novelty, besides omahlay is an afro fusion artist which demands him to be mixing foreign genres with an "African accent " so why changing lanes? and I hate it when afro fusion artist always have to jab at afrobeats as a PR stunt for their body of work eg when burnaboy downgraded afrobeats only to stir anticipation for "I told them". As for those laying false allegations on rema and victony, the only similarities between purple boy and rave Lorde is the chord progression of "charm" and" safe haven " but that's a common phenomenon in musicology, and victony always sounded the way it is now, it's impossible for a refined singer like omahlay to be using a radical sound like rema(ravage EP was a prep for heis) imagine the same people that labelled rema's new sound as trash are the first to be speculating omahlay was the originator of the sound ,smh 🤦.

Come on now it’s just not Rema, they’re not even gees and Rema previewed HEIS with RAVAGE EP, dead the agenda

[@scallopzoh3ree42]

Broo who tell you

[@ummuhanioladele9500]

Real, and he said he collaborated with the artist I don't think rema and omah lay have a song together. Also if it was 5 month after holy Ghost fire it can't be rema since heis came out in July

[@georgejean8376]

It's not Victony

[@hertzpel]

It's victony, it can never be rema😅, imagine omah lay singing ozeba😂

[@_Lesplay]

Can Victony sing Ozeba?

[@Mr.toocool1234]

[@Britnatural]

Please... Rema's album sounds insane like bounce. I feel like he always wanted to do rave afro beats. I feel like bounce and Ravage led the way for HEIS... Also holy ghost will never fit on HEIS I beg.

[@josephdavid718]

Exactly he did it in ravage and now he progressed with the sound

[@lasgidikingin]

I have a song titled Ise Oluwa, I recorded it last year. It’s not even finished. Asake dropped his album and the Song “Suru” has elements that sound like Asake heard my own song. I’ve never met him and I’ve never shared the song to anyone so did he steal it, obviously no. Where did I get the Ise Oluwa inspiration from? Adekunle Gold’s Ogaranya where he said “Ise Oluwa k’oseni toye” which means nobody understands how God works. Which is a popular saying in Yoruba land. We’re all inspired simultaneously especially songwriters because we usually draw inspiration from the same wavelength. Did someone steal Omah Lay’s sound, yes it’s possible and it’s also possible he just read it wrong or maybe it’s a controversial thing to create the same buzz we’re experiencing to promote his album. At the end of the day what will be will be. Omah Lay if you’re reading this no worry e get why things happen laidat. Keep your head up and move forward.

[@Aqufe]

But there is nothing really new in what llona did on his homeless album that we haven't heard before, same as victony, the only project diff from all of them is rema's,and don't forget he (omah lay) said he shared ideas of how he wants to make his album not that he sat someone down and started playing songs for them or show them track lists or something, i don't think omah lay can make that rema album nahhh!!,it was just ideas that was stolen not the actual songs And it might just be pr strategies who knows?.

[@KingsBelieve]

And remember Burna boy last album was so quick and surprising to us. Been that it's not long we finished listening to his love, Damini album. And Omah lay said "Everything fela stands for" In Nigeria whom do we see like that 🤔 ? Think

[@_Lesplay]

The Fela comment was in a different context

[@whizpaoriginelle5260]

I’m quite shocked that nobody saw that Rema stole this new style from Playboi Cartis new flow, legit stole everything and added afrobeat drums to the beats

[@codcalloffduty8694]

When it comes to stealing music idea if you’re musically inclined you would know that when an artist steals an idea he implements it with his own and that makes it like he owns it but then only the one that initially owns it would know the unique similarities that makes him thinks it’s his idea
