Harvey made this assertion in a recent episode of his television show, where he highlighted the profound influence of African beats, rhythm, and soul on Western music, particularly American music.

Contrary to popular claims of plagiarism, Harvey boldly stated, “People claim Burna Boy stole this, no, we stole from Burna Boy. Africans are the beats, soul, rhythm, and hard work that inspire our courage.”

His remarks come amidst ongoing discussions about the global impact of African music and the cultural exchange between Africa and the West.

Meanwhile, Nigerian rapper Odumodublvck, known for his insightful commentary, has further reinforced the narrative of African artists’ success being rooted in their own hustle and divine inspiration. Refuting the notion of paved paths by other musicians, Odumodublvck emphasized the importance of diligence and resolve in achieving success.

In response to claims by veteran singer Eedris Abdulkareem that he paved the way for artists like Davido, Burna Boy, and Wizkid, Odumodublvck dismissed such assertions as attempts to appropriate “God’s glory,” stressing that true success can only come from individual effort and divine intervention.
