Reacting to Teni’s statement, Shizzy accused the female singer and her label Dr Dolor Entertainment of cheating him as he claimed they reproduced her popular song, Case, without his consent.
Shizzy claimed Teni’s label gave their in-house producer the song, Case to reproduce even though he was the one who began the project from the scratch.
