Oladips, a prominent Nigerian rapper, has openly accused Wizkid of intellectual property theft, claiming that Wizkid’s verse on Asake’s track “MMS” closely mirrors his own lyrics from the 2022 release “Ajala Traveller.”
Oladips presented a screenshot comparison to emphasize the similarity between his lyric “I had to lose myself to find my purpose” and Wizkid’s corresponding line “Lost Myself, and I found my purpose.”
He raised concerns about the nature of this similarity, questioning whether it was merely a coincidence or an instance of recycling, and urged Wizkid to respond to the matter.
This allegation has ignited a fervent discussion among fans and music aficionados, prompting numerous individuals to express their opinions on social media platforms.
