Terry G, the Nigerian singer, has addresed claims that he hijacked the 2009 hit song ‘Pass Me Your Love’ from fellow artiste AY.com.
The track, produced by Terry G who also featured as a guest artiste, was released by AY.com, born Ayoola Johnson, and quickly rose to prominence.
Terry G, however, faced criticism for frequently performing the song at his shows.
But in a recent X post , the ‘Free Madness’ hitmaker dismissed the allegations, describing them as “ignorant” and rooted in double standards.
Terry G clarified that he never claimed ownership of the song, nor did he include it in any of his albums.
“To those saying I stole ‘Pass Me Your Love’ from AY.com— that’s pure ignorance,” he wrote.
“So I don’t have the right to perform a song I collaborated on? Your favourite artists do it all the time, but when it’s me, it becomes a problem. Hypocrisy at its finest.
“And no, I didn’t put the song on my album — it was never about ownership, it was about collaboration.
“Some of you ruined AY’s moment with your noise, not me. As for my shine, nobody can block it. You no reach.”
