South African Kwaito artiste, Professor says he isn’t worried that a popular Nigerian artiste, Terry G used his beat for one of his recent hits.
The South African said this during an exclusive interview with NET, yesterday.
Professor is in Nigeria for the MTV All Star tour happening at Federal Palace Hotels, in Lagos tonight.
‘I would really not like to discuss that. Although I have no prior
agreement with the Nigerian artiste, I think may be my record label is
aware of the use and I’m not worried about that. I’m only pleased that
it is appreciated here in Nigeria. Hopefully they will like my own
version of the song here too’, Professor said.
The instrumental for Terry G’s ‘See Groove’ whose video was shot in South Africa was originally used by Professor for his South African hit ‘Lento’ in which he featured fellow Kwaito artiste, Speedy. The song was a major hit in South Africa.
Professor is one of the biggest Kwaito artistes in South Africa right
now. In 2011, he swept through the MTN South African Awards when he won
Male Artiste of the Year, Best Kwaito Album (University of Kalawa
Jazmee) and Record of the Year (Imoto).
Professor is currently in Nigeria to perform with a host of Nigerian stars: 2face, Ice Prince Zamani and Davido at the MTV Africa All Stars concert in Lagos tonight
