VIDEO: Davido Accused Of Stealing Lyrics From Usher’s Song

The lyrical content of the trending DMW song, Mind, has been the cause of a huge conversation about the hook of the song, taken by Davido, being a copy of Usher Raymond’s 2004 hit single, Caught Up. The controversy causing line is the, “and I’m so caught up /You got me feeling it, caught up,” which has now become popular and appreciated until the attention of Nigerians were drawn to Usher’s 2004 hit single which seems to carry the original line that Davido has been accused of borrowing, or is it stealing from.

DMW released the song, Mind, on January 31st, 2018 and it has the vocal input of Davido, Mayorkun, Dremo, Peruzzi and the music production contribution of Fresh VDM. The song is fast becoming a popular song, receiving good amount of airplay but now that the issue of copied lyrics has been raised, we wait to see how Nigerians would react to the song.
