Ghanaian Afro pop music duo Galaxy has been accused by for stealing lyrics from gospel artiste Nana Ama who is a novice in the music scene.

Manager of the artiste, Frank Ankomah told MzGee on Hitz FM that Galaxy cunningly stole Nana Ama’s lyrics after her track, titled ‘Papabi’, was released earlier before Galaxy came up with a song which was on the same hook.

According to him, ‘Papabi’, was released on September 14 this year – a month ahead of Galaxy’s release on the October 12.

“It’s the hook and not the song. We can obviously see that the songs have two different themes, ours is a gospel song talking about God and they are talking about the wonderful shape of a woman. I am managing an artiste who has that song’s hook and I think it is the hook [Galaxy] used.

“We have promoted this song mainly in Kumasi, some part of the Volta Region and Koforidua [Eastern Region] but a lot more of what we are doing is promotion through social media. We wanted to come out with an album but we decided to push one song out there and make available to everybody so we sent it mostly on WhatsApp so though they might not have used the studio we used, I do not know how they could have gotten the song but per how we promoted the song anything is possible,” he said.

However, the duo has denied stealing the lyrics—and even asserting that Nana Ama and her team are rather being smart enough to dip into their fame to promote their song.

“When Willis beat sent us, our personal beat maker Shoto Blinks asked that we do something with it and within two hours the song was ready so we don’t understand him. We think he [Frank] just wants to ride on us to promote his song,” Galaxy told MzGee in a statement.
