Naira Marley’s latest signee Lyta has been accused of plagiarising the music video of a South Korean K-pop boy band, GOT7.
The 22-year-old’s new music video for ‘Hold Me Down’ which was released on Friday bears similar concept with GOT7’s ‘Just Right’ that was released in 2015.
The description on the video, which was uploaded on Naira Marley’s official YouTube channel reads, “This video was inspired by Kpop Korean boy band GOT7 and BTS”.
Lyta’s video has already amassed over 700,000 views and 21,256 comments as of press time.
The singer’s ‘Hold Me Down (Omo Gidi)’ was produced by Quebeats while the video was shot and directed by WG Films.
Reacting to the news, Naira Marley on Saturday tweeted: “What if it was ikorodu bois that directed lyta’s new video? Lyta enjoy ur streams mehn.”
Lyta they’re dragging ur hair in Asia right now😂😂😂😂 Lyta’s not the video director mf. #ApologiseLyta 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Then he teased in another tweet: “Plagiarism ko polygamy ni.”
Lyta had earlier this week signed on to Naira Marley’s Marlian Music.
He was previously with Olamide’s YBNL Nation until May last year.
