Ahmedu Augustine, popularly known as Blackface, recently called out his longtime friend and multi-award winning artiste, Innocent Idibia (2face) out on social media and threatened to drag him to court for allegedly stealing his song.
Blackface accused 2face of stealing “Let Somebody Love You”. 2face released the song with Bridget Kelly, an American singer and songwriter from New York City, as part of his Ascension album in 2014.
In a chat with Channels TV’s Entertainment News, 2face reacted to the allegations of song theft by his former band mate – Blackface. He said,
“My brother it’s just so unfortunate. I don’t know where it is coming from. I’m trying to think of different reasons. I thought maybe his account was hacked or something. Apparently it wasn’t hacked, so we’ll trash the whole matter..but I’ve got nothing but love and respect for him and it’s just so unfortunate that he’s coming at me like that.”
When asked if he still considers him (Blackface) a friend, 2face said “Apparently he doesn’t consider me his friend anymore but I wish him no ill-will. Let’s leave it like that for now.”
