Davido’s ‘Ogechi Remix’ Removed from YouTube Due to Copyright Issues
In a surprising turn of events, Nigerian Afrobeat musician Davido’s highly anticipated wedding hit, ‘Ogechi Remix’, has been taken down from YouTube over copyright concerns. The song, which gained massive popularity among fans after its release, was performed live at Davido’s lavish wedding to Chioma on June 25, 2024.
The ‘Ogechi Remix’, a collaboration with BoyPee, Brown Joel, and Hyce, quickly became a fan favorite after its release. The music video was uploaded to YouTube on July 19, 2024, but in a recent development, the video has been removed due to a copyright claim. Although the video is no longer accessible, the audio remains available on BoyPee’s official YouTube page.
Interestingly, current information suggests that Davido is not credited as the official artist on YouTube for the song. This raises questions about the true ownership of the track. A trending video on the internet has revealed that the original version of ‘Ogechi’ was created by a different artist before the remix.
The drama surrounding the song’s removal has sparked intense debate on social media, with many calling out Davido for allegedly stealing the song without paying the original artist. The Twitter user @moshpuppyyy, who shared a screenshot of the song’s removal, accused Davido of being a “thief” and demanded his arrest.
The incident highlights the importance of copyright protection in the music industry. As the debate surrounding the song’s ownership continues, fans and industry experts alike are left wondering what the future holds for ‘Ogechi Remix’ and Davido’s reputation.
