The young lad won the heart of Ghanaians when he dropped his hit single \u2018Angela\u2019 last year; a song that got him performances on most of the big events that was organised.<\/p>\n<p>The ladies couldn\u2019t stop singing and dancing to the song each time that jam came on mainly because they were able to resonate with the lyrics. After \u2018Angela\u2019 Kwame Eugene has dropped another song which is definitely a hit song as well, titled \u2018Confusion\u2019 and the song sort of sounds like a continuation of the song \u2018Angela\u2019 when you match the storyline in both music videos and the lyrical content.<\/p>\n<p>The song \u2018Angela\u2019 tells a story of a boy who shows his love and affection for a girl he loves and pampers her and let\u2019s her understand his love for her was real and that was willing to do anything to make her his woman then we had a me song \u2018Confusion\u2019 that sort of follows the story after \u2018Angela\u2019 and it only takes creative people to be able to do this.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve listened to the song or watch the music video, you would notice what I am trying to establish as the new song also follows their love story. Kwame Eugene wants to get married to \u2018Angela\u2019 now but his mother disapproves of this marriage and that sort of is creating \u2018Confusion\u2019 in their marriage as \u2018Angela\u2019 seems disturbed and almost falls in the trap of another man, who perhaps she feels would have a family ready to accept her.<\/p>\n<p>Although Kwami Eugene exhibited all of this creative brilliance, he\u2019s come under public scrutiny as he\u2019s being accused of \u2018stealing\u2019 the song from one Malian Musician who is known as Sidiki Diabat\u00e9 who released the same version of the song back in 2015 and has garnered more than 15 million views on Youtube.<\/p>\n<p>The title of his song \u2018Fais moi Confiance\u2018 is a French word which means \u2018Trust Me\u2019 and after watching the music video, although we were not able to understand the lyrics because it was sung in French, one could easily tell what the song was about.<\/p>\n<p>For the Malian musician\u2019s version, the story seems to be more like a man and a woman who are in a happy relationship then some girl who is jealous of their beautiful relationship comes into the picture and starts feeding the girl with lies that her man is cheating on her. So the guy tries to tell the girl to \u2018Trust him\u2019 and not listen to anyone because she\u2019s the only he loves and has eyes for no other.<\/p>\n<p>So How Did Kwame Eugene Steal It If His is \u2018Confusion\u2019 and the guy\u2019s own is \u2018Trust Me\u2019?<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nWell, from comments, and from our own judgment, the rhythm and beats are the same but storyline wise, there\u2019s a clear difference.<\/p>\n<p>We at Ghbase.com don\u2019t see it as a big deal. There\u2019s nothing wrong to take inspiration from other people\u2019s songs somewhere and make some few tweaks here and there to suit your style and your audience so people should just let Kwame Eugene be!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a great piece and we should just enjoy the song. Yes, same beat, same rhythm but it\u2019s definitely not word by word or same storyline.<\/p>\n<p><b><\/b>Watch Kwame Eugene\u2019s own below:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/g2R0V-TgBY4\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><b><\/b>Now watch the Malian\u2019s own below and tell us what you think<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5KcYuqou1iQ\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 71 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Sunday, 4 February 2018 Source: ghbase.com 2018-02-04 Kuami Eugene&#8217;s new song &#8216;Confusion&#8217; is a continuation of his hit track &#8216;Angela&#8217; It\u2019s no doubt that Kwami Eugene is now seen as one of the new schools that will take Ghana\u2019s music to the next level, with the kind of music he\u2019s been releasing since [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":461342,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-461341","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/461341","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=461341"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/461341\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=461341"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=461341"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=461341"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
