I wrote and composed it in spirit before De Thompson physically crafted it. It\u2019s disappointing that my idea was taken and used without my acknowledgment,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The controversy deepened when the show host questioned the basis of LilWin\u2019s claim. The host pointed out that the term Honourable Waawe had only appeared in a film where LilWin played a lead role. In response, the actor stood his ground.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat film was where I first introduced the term. It\u2019s my creative property, and just because someone put it into a song doesn\u2019t mean they own the idea. The entire inspiration came from me, and the musician ran with it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b> Enjoy the performances of Ruger, Patoranking, Amerado, Beeztrap KOTM, others at 2024 Rapperholic : <\/b><\/p>\n<p><div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"mPf2B79CY7s\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Enjoy the performances of Ruger, Patoranking, Amerado, Beeztrap KOTM, others\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mPf2B79CY7s?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Watch what musician Amerado Burner has to say about comparison between Ghana and Nigerian music:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"5BCi2k15vW4\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Ghanaians will fail if we are not content with what we have - Amerado Burner\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5BCi2k15vW4?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ghanaian Kumawood actor LilWin Ghanaian actor and entertainer Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as LilWin, has stirred up a storm over the viral hit song Honourable Waawe, which gained massive attention following the New Patriotic Party\u2019s (NPP) loss to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the 2024 elections.
