Ghanaian music duo born Joshua and Andrew better known by their stage name “Keche” is currently trending on the micro-blogging platform Twitter over a tweet they made regarding their hit song “No Dulling” which featured Ghanaian highlife musician Kuami Eugene. Kuami Eugene in a recent interview with Ghanaian screen goddess Deloris Frimpong Manso better known as “Delay” revealed that, he wrote most verses of the “No Dulling” song for Keche. Keche's reply to this claim revealed that it was never true and that Kuami Eugene only wrote his verse and not theirs. Keche replying to Kuami Eugene posted a part of his interview with delay on their official Twitter page and captioned it “waa look” giving users the impression that, whatever Kuami Eugene said in the interview regarding the song is false.

These assertions by both parties derived a whole lot of conversations online with users sharing their various opinions.

“Most of the choruses on songs, If sung, are written

by those who sing it. For example, King Promise on

Anadwo and Can't Let you go. Doesn't mean He

wrote the song, it means he was featured even

though his hooks are what makes the song a hit”.

“Michael Jackson had people write full songs for him. Even Beyoncé now. This is not something that should be a topic”.

“But I understand why Keche is mad because it is a

collaborative effort so saying he wrote the song is wild… Now if he wrote the hook and they did the song with the same hook without his vocals on it then he can say he wrote the song for them but that wasn't the case”.

“Y'all came together & dropped a heat that hit hard! Whoever claimed the right as a writer shouldn't be

a headline for feuds. Target was met with that record. Let the love & respect keep rolling. Kuame Eugene Keche, don't doll the movement”.

@TopBoy_Nick 

“Y'all want the guy to stop giving out hits for free.

Never heard of him saying he owns a song(we all know he wrote the chorus and hook that made it a hit + featured) till this issue. He really should learn from this”.

“There's nothing wrong if someone writes for you,

MJ, Drake, and all these big people got songwriters

on their label”.

@JodelHQ 

“Until creators (musicians) start taking credit for

their work right from the studio before it hit the

streaming platforms, this will continue to happen

everyday. Come to think of it, is Kuame Eugene

not under an international & local label, and way

are they not involve in this?”.
