Singer Skales has reacted to claims that the concept behind his latest video AGOLO was copied from Olamide's WO.
In his words:
"Because artistes inspire each other, I will never go against anyone who says I copied Olamide. He has always motivated me. I recently told the story of how he paid for my music video. He also told me that I have inspired him in so many ways. But he was not the first person to shoot a street video. Before I even released the video, we had a conversation about it.
"I didn't try to copy anyone; it was just an inspiration. Next year, I plan to do more music that is relatable to the people on the streets because, at the end of the day, they are the people we do music for," he added.
If you recall, Controversial music critic, Osagie Alonge called out Skales for copying Olamide's viral street video for "Wo".
He took to microblogging website, Twitter to share his opinion. He tweeted and shared photos to back himself up.
The tweet read;
"Must you shoot a street video cos Olamide just did? Must you wear a waist purse just because Olamide just did?"
Skales didn't take lightly to the accusation of creative plagiarism... he responded, saying,
