During a recent episode of his podcast on the Joe Budden Network, the rapper showered accolades on Burna Boy, recognizing him as a global force in the music industry.
Budden, however, didn’t hesitate to voice his discontentment with Burna Boy’s decision to secure rights to the well-known track “Talibans” by Jamaican singer Byron Messia, after he was featured in the remix.
According to Budden, he fiercely opposed similar behavior even when American Hiphop icon, Kanye West, did it a few years ago.
“I’m never a fan of people transferring ownership of already existing songs to themselves after being featured in the remix.
“To the biggest artiste in the world [Burna Boy]. Yeah, I’m not a fan of when that happens. If you made the hit, go work it. If Burna Boy is on it, that should be yours now. But I don’t know the business he [Byron Messia] and Burna Boy did.
“I never remember that going right for somebody. Designer and Kenye [West], I was vehemently against it,” he said.
KanyiDaily recalls that Joe Budden, whose real name is Joseph Anthony, had come under heavy fire from music fans in Nigeria after he described Burna Boy’s former album as ‘ridiculous’.
