The Kenyan hitmaker has had another song taken down due to copyright claims

Kenyan artist Bahati faced a setback when his track ‘Huyu’ was removed from YouTube due to copyright infringement allegations. The artist claimed that an individual named JINI X66 was responsible for this action. Bahati expressed his frustration on social media, questioning, “Who is Genius X66, and why did they maliciously remove my trending song #HUYU from YouTube when it was at No. 2?”

The removal of Bahati’s ‘HUYU’ song from YouTube led to skepticism among Kenyans, with some suggesting that he might be seeking sympathy and views. Here are some of the reactions to the video’s removal.

 

mceefrank: Jini X66 is a very talented TZ artist probably one of the most underrated, guy sings like a nigerian…his track with Jay Melody kwanza…..anyway….. He doesn’t have the power to delete your video, its all about copyright claim which is legal. Its not an attack, its everyone’s right to claim it if they feel infringed stop tinting his name for asking what could be rightfully his. This shit brings kenyan industry down, cheap clout, pettiness and poor scripting of staged issues. Bana Bahati stop being petty, if the song is not infringing anyone’s right the YouTube will definitely bring it back you know.
