Fifteen years after the release of “African Queen” by 2Baba Idibia, Ahmedu
Augustine Obiabo, popularly known as Blackface, has released his own version.
The track, which was a major hit in 2004, created issues between the former
Plantashun Boiz member and his band mates.
Blackface claimed to have composed the song and even demanded its
ownership.
Taking to his Instagram page on Sunday, September 8, Blackface announced
that he has released the new track and also shared it via same medium.
In March, Blackface released his long-promised song on 2Baba titled “WAR”.
Meanwhile, at a recent concert in Festac, the duo met on stage and called a
truce. On stage, Blackface promised to stop hounding 2Baba and drop all
allegations against him. But with the release of Blackface’s version, we wonder
if there is still trouble in paradise.
Blackface was a founding member of the Plantashun Boyz band which he formed
in 2000 with 2Baba (formerlly 2face Idibia) and musician Chibuzor Oji (better
known as Faze)
