Mr Real accuses Idowest of song theft, labels him “Greedy”

Nigerian singer, Okafor Uchenna Victor, popularly known as Mr Real, has taken to social media to accuse rapper Idowest of song theft. Mr Real alleges that Idowest stole the hit song “Shekpeteri” from a disc jockey and recorded it with Slimcase after the song had already been done by another group of individuals.

In a video circulating on social media, Mr Real expressed his frustration, blaming Idowest’s alleged greed for hindering their financial success, particularly from the song “Legbegbe” in which they collaborated.

He stated, “We are supposed to have houses in Island judging by the virality of our songs; ‘Legbegbe’ was everywhere, ‘Shekpeteri’ was everywhere. But you [Idowest] didn’t allow us to make money because of your greed.”

Mr Real went on to claim that the popular song “Shekpeteri” originally belonged to a DJ and had been created by a different group before Idowest allegedly took it and produced his version with Slimcase. He concluded by urging Idowest to apologize for his actions.
