Local rapper Gereson Wabuyu a.k.a Gravity Omutujju’s recently released song ‘Doboozi Lya Mutuuze’ has been pulled down from YouTube over copyright infringement.
Following a month’s struggle to publicize his request to National Unity Platform leader Bobi Wine to aid in the construction of a hospital in Busabala, Gravity Omutujju released a song.
Directed towards his cause, the song dubbed “Doboozi Lya Mutuuze” (loosely translated as “Voice Of The Citizen”) urged people to join his quest.
The song has, however, been deleted from YouTube.
According to a screenshot shared by the Trouble Tabu Entertainment rapper, YouTube took it down over copyright infringement.
The details reveal that the song contained content from Bobi Wine’s song ‘Kiwaani’ and that the Firebase singer, as the owner of the original song, requested it to be taken down.
Gravity has now reverted to social media to question why Bobi would have his song deleted yet he has also redone songs made by other artists in the past.
Netizens have also joined the online battle as they continue to air their opinions. Follow the reactions below.
