Nigerian music icon 2Baba has shared insights into past challenges involving issues of songwriting, ownership, and royalties.
In a recent statement, the singer explained that he remained silent for many years while different claims circulated publicly about his work. According to him, the situation was difficult because he believed that both parties involved were aware of the facts, yet conflicting narratives continued to emerge.
2Baba noted that the matter eventually led to legal proceedings, which were later resolved through a settlement. However, he added that the impact of public narratives can take time to fade, even after such issues are settled.
Reflecting on the experience, the artist said he had to make a personal decision to move forward without holding on to negative emotions. He emphasized that maintaining peace of mind was important for his well-being and creative focus.
He also encouraged fellow creatives to protect their work, speak when necessary, and remain focused on their growth despite challenges.
The statement has led to thoughtful discussions among fans and industry observers about the importance of intellectual property, reputation, and emotional resilience in the entertainment industry.
