Fletcher Narh revealed in an interview on Neat FM that Joe Mettle contacted him to ‘sample’ his breakthrough song “Meyi Waye” which he was okay with. However, he told him to hold on whilst he prays about it. He also pointed out that they do it the right way.
But before, he was aware, Joe Mettle had released the song without going through the necessary copyright process. And he also failed to give him credit.

“He called me years ago and told me he had done all the research and he loves the song and that he wanted to do [sample] it. I said ‘that’s okay. I have a lot of songs but we have to do it the right way’. He even wanted to know how much I was going to charge for it. I need to pray about it and all that but by the time I realised, he had released it,” he said.
According to U.S based gospel musician Fletcher Narh, he is excited that Joe Mettle sampled his song but he is absolutely not happy he didn’t give him credit for the song.
“I believe that the truth is the truth and nothing can outlive the truth. I was in America when people sent me videos and it was exciting but I feel that I deserved some credit,” he added.
