Gospel singer Ringtone
Gospel singer Ringtone has been accused of copying lyrics and a tune belonging to a single by a Kisii-based musician by the name Sagero.
The artiste says Ringtone’s song, Mziki ni Dawa, was originally his and Ringtone only changed it into a Swahili tune in his now popular single.
“I would like Kenyans to know that even if the songs have a similar title, I wrote mine from the Bible story of David and Saul. I don’t know where he got his inspiration from,” Ringtone defended.
“Why is he going around spreading lies that I stole his song? I have never even heard what he sings in the first place,” he charged.
