Kwame Yogot Denies Accusations of Kuami Eugene Stealing ‘Canopy’ from Him

Kwame Yogot has vehemently refuted accusations suggesting that Kuami Eugene’s hit track “Canopy” was stolen from him.

Setting the record straight, Yogot made it clear during an interview with Nana Romeo on Ayekoo Ayekoo aired on Accra 100.5 FM, Thursday, 4 April 2024, that “Canopy” is not his song.

Dismissing any insinuation of ownership, the rapper emphasized, “When I made the social media post, I didn’t say the song was mine. I don’t know what exactly made people think the song was mine.”

He further explained, “It’s the public that is saying he has stolen my song. I’ve not said any such thing to anyone.”

Yogot clarified that while he has collaborated with Kuami Eugene on various tracks, including “Canopy,” he is not the sole owner of the song. “Even though on some of our collaborations, I am the host and Kuami the guest, the Canopy song was for Kuami, and I had a guest rap performance on it,” he stated.

Addressing the speculation surrounding the exclusion of his verse from Kuami Eugene’s recent album, “Love & Chaos,” Yogot disclosed, “The original Canopy song with my verse was supposed to be on the album but it was not added.”

Refuting any notion of malfeasance, Yogot firmly stated, “Kuami Eugene cannot steal my song, pardon me.”

Regarding the video shared on social media accusing Kuami Eugene of song theft, Yogot clarified, “It’s my platform and I was mentioned in the video.” He also explained that he is not the sole administrator of his Facebook account, suggesting that someone else might have published the controversial video.
