Mr. Real Responds to Idowest's Claim of Ownership of “Legbegbe”

Nigerian singer Mr Real has refuted Idowest’s claim that he is the original owner of the popular street anthem ‘Legbegbe.’

‘Legbegbe,’ released in 2018, was a collaboration between Mr Real and Idowest and became one of the anthems associated with the Shaku Shaku movement.

Mr Real has expressed regret over featuring Idowest on the track, stating that he would have achieved greater fame had he performed the song solo.

During a recent livestream with streamer Caterefe, Idowest criticized Mr Real’s remarks and asserted that he is the original owner of ‘Legbegbe.’

“I am the original owner of ‘Legbegbe.’ I composed the full song. I only featured Mr Real on the track as my boy in the hood but now he’s claiming the song. He is an old man, I will beat him up.”

In a video broadcast, Mr Real insisted that he is the rightful owner of ‘Legbegbe’ and accused Idowest of lying during the interview.

Mr Real also accepted Idowest’s invitation to a public confrontation.

“Idowest, I heard everything you said at Carter Efe’s live. You said you will beat me in a match. I am your senior brother and I will beat you.”

“I heard you were deported from America. Instead of promoting your music, you are diminishing me by claiming my song, ‘Legbegbe.’ I won’t even waste my precious time on you,” he said.
