Majek Fashek Accuses Timi Dakolo of Stealing His Song because he had mental issue

 Majek Fashek has come forward with claims that R&B singer Timi Dakolo stole his song.
In a recent interview with Saturday Beats , the Reggae icon revealed that Timi Dakolo never took permission from him before he recorded a remix of his hit song, Send Down the Rain in 2013, adding that the Iyawo Mi crooner had exploited the fact that he was mentally unstable.

“He broke the rules of copyright. He is a thief because in music business, one must take permission before working on someone else’s song. That is why we have COSON,”  he said.
He also slammed Dakolo, calling him a fake artiste for infringing on the laws of copyright.
“Dakolo never bothered to look for me before stealing my song. He is not an original artiste. It is only people like Tuface, Wizkid, Olamide that are original.”
In addition, Fashek admitted that he was hurt that he wasn’t even given credit for the song and further explained why.
“The song is not a normal song; it is a spiritual hit song. Timi Dakolo does not know how I suffered to get that song. I fasted for seven days before I got that song. I partook in three days ‘white’ fasting  before the song came to me.  Timi Dakolo did not go through that. I did not fight him because I do not have time. Let God judge us.”
Majek Fashek, has been stable since March after receiving treatment at an Abuja based rehab centre. He and his business consultant, Omenka Uzoma are now trying to fish out all those who took advantage of him.
However, when Timi Dakolo was contacted to get his own side of the story, he reportedly refused to answer.
