Musician, Mr Drew asked bloggers and the general public who are dragging Stonebwoy for featuring on his song to cut him some slack.
In a video posted to his Twitter page, the Highly Spiritual signee blamed his publicist for not taking care of copyright matters after Stonebwoy advised them to.
According to him, Stonebwoy asked them to get clearance after submitting his verse for the feature but his publicist did not adhere to it.
“I’m seeing blogs, I’m seeing news all over. Wrong news actually and I wanna say this; Stonebwoy blessed is with a verse on my cover song, sent it to us, told us to do the right thing by contacting the originator of the song,” he said.
“And my publisher failed to do that so it’s our fault,” he added.
He then cautioned the public against going after Stonebwoy.
“Please don’t drag Stonebwoy into this. Don’t drag his management, don’t drag Stonebwoy as a brand and don’t drag Bhimnatives into this.”
