The controversy causing line is, “and I’m so caught up/You got me feeling it, caught up,” which has now become popular and appreciated until the attention of Nigerians was drawn to Usher’s 2004 hit single, which seems to carry the original line that Davido has been accused of borrowing, or is it stealing from.

DMW released the song, "Mind," on January 31st, 2018 and it has the vocal input of Davido, Mayorkun, Dremo, Peruzzi, and the music production contribution of Fresh VDM.

The song is fast becoming a popular song, receiving a good amount of airplay, but now that the issue of copied lyrics has been raised, we wait to see how Nigerians will react to the song.
