Upcoming Rapper Rajayjay Accuses Octopizzo Of Stealing Lyrics!

Octopizzo seems to rub off a lot of people the wrong way, may be that is the fruit of success, you judge for yourselves.

Earlier this morning, a rapper by the name Rajayjay (Rajul Kisia) passed by our offices and accused Octo of stealing a couple of rhymes from not only him but a number of Lang’ata based artists. He, in his own words, said that Octo would sometimes go to Studio 15, or Martial sounds studios in Lang’ata, sit and listen to the songs, and then use some of those punch lines in his own songs. Examples Rajayjay gave were, “Raila ana ni Owe Dinga” a play of words on Raila Odinga’s name. The other was ‘nimekafunga kama Ramadhan”. I believe that line was used by Octopizzo on his duet with Sage.

We actually took a video but due to unavoidable circumstances, I’m not able to share it. What I can do however is share what Octopizzo had to say. First he vehemently denied ever going to Lang’ata studios saying that he has his own studio where he records. He prefers to record with Musyoka or any other noteworthy producer that he feels can capture his sound well. Two, Octopizzo said that this rapper is not the first to try ride on his hard earned fame. Infact “if that guy wants to be famous, he could walk naked in town for all I care” Said Octopizzo. Well, Octopizzo does have a line of boxers.

There you have it, Rajul on behalf of Lang’ata artists has issued an ultimatum to Octopizzo, “Stay away from Lang’ata!” Octopizzo on his part said he pays no mind to artistes whose music he had no idea existed. What say you guys?
