Emma Nyra Stole ‘Work Hard’ From Me – Producer OD Beats Claims, Provides Proof
Singer Emma Nyra, has been slammed with a song theft accusation following the release of ‘Work Hard‘ the lead single from her forthcoming EP, Love VS Money.
Music producer, Samson Ohda known as OD Beats, has accused the ‘For My Matter’ crooner of stealing her latest single, ‘Work Hard’ from him. According to the producer, he met a brick wall after finalizing work on the beat as Emma and her team refused to pay him for the work done.
Releasing a statement and video clip of Emma’s studio session, OD Beat, further explained the situation;
"On June 29th Emma Nyra was in the studio with Samson Ohda aka OD Beats when he creatively produced and composed the reggae/afropop influenced beat for ‘Work Hard’ off her released Ep. After OD beats had been contracted (Verbally/Text Messages) to produce her EP, shortly after started having difficulty with payment from her camp. Subsequently after trying to make a deposit for OD to send over some tracks, they started making up excuses which lead to her stealing the intellectual property in a sordid attempt to recreate an idea idea she did not pay for and sell it of as having produced by another Houston based producer (Tag on the track) in a show of spite.As at the time of this report, Emma Nyra, is yet to respond to the claim.
‘My reason for highlighting and sharing this story is to touch on the manner producers are often taking advantage of when they try to work with an estab artist to a mutual end. I hear these stories countlessly and it’s devastating to the psyche when someone puts his heart and soul into something and someone else feels entitled enough to steal your efforts with impunity. In an industry that’s already lacking compensatory structure, I can only imagine how producers in Nigeria and other countries are being taken advantage of; which is not to say all artists are that way."

DECODE | WHAT MATTERS NOW?
WHY YOU SHOULD DECODE
The phrase ‘change is a constant thing’ is common, only that they who profess it ignore the constant thing itself. Change is the process by which the future invades our lives. It was the slogans of a recently concluded election in Nigeria, the mantra of our every day economy that we lament of, yet do nothing about. Down here in the most Southern part of the South, the effect of recent change in the economy has hit our cities so bad one can smell the lack in the air.
From Keke Drivers to Road Side Recharge Card Sellers, to the Makeup Artist, to the Photographer to the New Graphics Artist, to the budding Fashion Designer, when asked ‘What Matters Now’, answer with one voice, ‘Entrepreneurship’. This is good news for the city in Warri, however, the enterprise of the future has a different language, pace and culture.
Previously, men studied the past to shed light on the present, but in today’s entrepreneurship world, the time-mirror has been turned around. A coherent image of the future can shower us with valuable insights for today. To be effective in business today, you have to know where the world is going, how it is going there and who is taking it there. And this is what the conference Decode is about.
Decode is a Creative Entrepreneurs Conference positioned to engage this societal challenge by equipping Creatives with the knowledge, skill and sophistication needed to forge profitability and fulfillment.
Our hope is that through these unique experiences, there will be a spark within you to make better art, live more authentically, and use your creativity to inspire the world around you.
Our mission is to empower creatives to be their best creative ‘selfs’ though building experiences that will enhance their lives and creativity.
When was the last time you rethought how you approach sales and pricing? Having a better understanding of this process can impact every part of your business or freelance career. This process is rarely showcased or discussed among peers, which is why Decode will walk you through pricing your creative work based on the value you are generating.
The conference creates a space where you will be challenged to push yourself in the creative process, inspired by others who are thriving in the creative industry, and empowered with resources and practical tips to help you pursue excellence.
At the end of the two-day experience you will leave with a fresh spark of passion, filled to the brim with innovative ideas, and with a community of creatives who are ready to create and do life with you.
