It stated that the track released a few days ago was by a rising singer only known as Ewa.
“It has been brought to our attention that there is a song “Crazy Love”, being circulated on the Internet which was composed and sang by one Ewa and purportedly featuring 2Face.
“The song is an illegal manipulation and super-imposition on 2Face’s unreleased song titled “Could This Be Love.
“This odious and fraudulent act is not only condemnable but also an assault on the integrity of the entertainment industry which thrives on creativity and hard work’’, the statement said.
It emphasised that the act was an infringement on 2Face’s right under the Copyright Act Cap C28, LFN 2004
