Stonebwoy’s African Party song, according to the blogger, has similar lyrics and rhythm from Ugandan artist Big Tril’s Parte After Parte track. To prove his point he collage a video of both songs to help spot the similarities.

Big Tril’s Parte After Parte was a major hit and was used during the festive season and year of return in Ghana. Maybe Stonebwoy took inspiration from the song or properly asked permit from Big Tril but what some Ghanaians are asking is why Becca is being bashed for sampling a South African song but Stonebwoy is left untouched.
