An upcoming singer, Olowu
Taiwo aka LT. has said that
rapper, Olamide stole the
popular ‘Shakiti Bobo’ dance
moves from him.
LT made this assertion during
an interview with HIP TV,
monitored by Vanguard
Newspaper. In his words, “After
I did my video, a friend of mine
told me the dance I did in the
video (Yobo dance) was
trending on Instagram by
Olamide. And my friend told me
he had already told someone
who is in Olamide’s crew about
the dance. I released the audio
version of my own song on 22nd
April, 2015, and Olamide
released his own song on 2nd
May. During that time, I was
working on my viral video which
I released on 6th May. It wasn’t
up to 24 hours after that, I saw ‘Shakiti Bobo.’ I was like, what’s going on; why
is this happening at this particular time. I’m not here to point fingers that
someone stole my dance moves, but I feel it’s not cool for you to do something
that you knew about from someone else, and pick it up as your own.”
Meanwhile, when a call was put through to Olamide’s manager, Alex, to react
to the story, he hung up the phone, and other attempts to reach him proved
abortive.
