He made the comments in relation to his new song, Chop Life which he sang certain Ga terms he said he believes are not owned by any entity.

He posited “So I feel I’m entitled to use some of our jargons and our street anthem in my songs and it’s something we grew up singing but nobody came to hold anybody’s neck.”
