Copyright Infringement: Danny Young Drops Case Against Tiwa Savage

Nigerian rapper, Danny Young has agreed to an out-of-court settlement, over the N205 million copyright suit against Tiwa Savage and her former management, Mavin Records. We gathered that the singer revealed this in a statement he posted on his Instagram account. The statement partly reads, “Mutual efforts in this regard have been successful and our client and the defendants, Tiwa Savage and Mavin Records, have come to a common understanding and agreed on the terms for the discontinuation of the suit. Therefore we shall no longer be proceeding with the court action.” The singer had claimed that Tiwa copied his (Danny Young’s) 2009 single, Oju Tiwon, in her (Tiwa’s) 2018 single titled, ‘One’. In the suit filed in February, Danny Young also joined Tiwa’s former record label, Mavin Records, owned by Don Jazzy, in the suit.
