Kenzo Faces Jail Time For Stealing A Song
Just a couple of days after releasing the video for the joint, “Matatu”, Kenzo has come under fire for allegedly stealing the song. The song was an original version and composure of Bassil an artist who is currently signed by the record label Evolution Media and Sound Limited.
Apparently Bassil had composed and written down this song while he was still working with Tuff Shutters Crew (remember the artist that Kenzo incorporated in his song’s video, K-mess, is a member of Tuff Shutters Crew). Bassil is even in possession of the rights to the song in its whole version from the Music Copyright Society of Kenya as he had registered it.
Allegedly Bassil even tried to talk Kenzo out of hyping the song when its audio was released but he did not heed and went ahead to release the video. So now, Bassil and his manager are following up the matter with the authorities to bring Kenzo to book.
Now, be the judge. Here are the two songs;
