Dem Wa Facebook firmly denied the allegations, asserting that their song was an original creation. “We put in a lot of work, went somewhere, shot the video, and it’s been trending… Then suddenly, Baha, Diana’s husband, is saying we stole his song,” she remarked.
Oga Obinna, with a hint of humor, joked that the only thing he might consider taking from Bahati is his wife. He further elaborated on the creative process behind the song, explaining that the idea came to him during a road trip. “We were actually on a road trip, listening to a komba mix, and there’s a part where the beat hits. That’s where the inspiration came from… I always record voice notes while driving, and that’s how the concept for ‘Namposti’ evolved,” Obinna shared.
Obinna also mentioned that the song’s success was a collaborative effort, created with the help of several individuals, including Goon, DVD Power, and a Tanzanian producer.
