In the video, the singer explains that he had an arrangement with the rapper and his team to not include his name in the song titled ” Oyinmo”.
Young Duu further explains that he did not want his name to be included in the song for any reason. “I didn’t want my name on the song because I didn’t want to be a part of it,” Young Duu says in the video. “Carterefe did not rip me off.”
Young Duu shares the full story.
In his statement, he said, “I was there, and I didn’t want my name there. My voice is my money, do you understand? Nobody is ripping me off.”
“My voice is my money, and I said it should be that way. That’s how it’s going to be. I want to see money; I came to Lagos to make money.”
