Emma Nyra Stole ‘Work Hard’ From Me – Producer OD Beats Claims, Provides Proof


Guess, the era of filming people in the studio as evidence is finally upon us.

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.
‘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."
As at the time of this report, Emma Nyra, is yet to respond to the claim.
