Two years after he released the banger, E.L disclosed he was sued for the unauthorized usage of the intellectual property.

He said in an interview on Property FM as reported by Mynewsgh that “That one they sued me and I had to pay some heavy block but it has made me learn my lesson”.

The one-time Artiste of the Year said he has learnt better not to incorporate any foreign elements in his songs other than the usual street jargons.

He made the comments in relation to his new song, Chop Life which he sang certain Ga terms he said he believes are not owned by any entity.

“So with the lines that I used in my Chop Life song as for that one yawa no go come. As for that one it’s our street rhymes that I used in my song so it doesn’t really belong to anybody and my mum is a Ga native woman,” he explained

He posited “So I feel I’m entitled to use some of our jargons and our street anthem in my songs and it’s something we grew up singing but nobody came to hold anybody’s neck.”

The song, since its emergence, has generated some positive reviews.

The concept of the song and video, E.L disclosed, was orchestrated by his technical crew and all he had to do was to sing along.

“The concept came from the producer of the beat. The beat was creative and unheard off and my job was just to fill the blanks,” he said.

Accoding to E.L, the production of the music video kept rolling for a month as the entire craft was turning out to be a logistical nightmare.

Despite all hurdles, he had relief from some personalities on board who did not fail in bringing their ‘A’ game on board to make the video a success.

“It was not difficult getting the celebrities on board because they are all talented. They are people I know personally and keep in touch with so I knew they always had my back,” he revealed.

To him, he knew the song was a hit from his production and the feedback from social media is enough confirmation.

‘Efa Wo Ho Ben’ is a creative piece by the artiste centered around afrobeats with a touch of backing vocals from choristers.

The mid-tempo song is a clap-back to nose-pokers to restrict their involvement in matters that do not concern them.
