Burna Boy and Others Utilize Songwriters: Logos Olori Speaks Out
Logos Olori, who is signed to the famous Afrobeat singer Davido, defended his boss for admitting to using songwriters. He said that all big artists do this.
In a recent interview with City 105.1 FM, Logos Olori mentioned that not just Davido, but also Wizkid, Burna Boy, and other major musicians use songwriters.
He explained that as artists become more famous, they have less time to write their own songs, so they hire songwriters to help.
He said
“Most people that shame artists for using songwriters don’t know much about the music business. As a musician you tend to write your songs most times when you are up-and-coming. When you’ve 10 shows in a week in different countries, you’ll understand that you need a songwriter.
“Chris Brown has a songwriter, Michael Jackson had a songwriter. Davido is currently on tour immediately after his wedding. He writes his songs sometimes but most times he has to do the business part of it. That’s how Burna Boy is, that’s how most artists are even Wizkid but they don’t just put it out there but if you go to Spotify to check for the credits of their songs, you will see that they use songwriters as well.”
