No Idea Who Leaked Wizkid’s New Song With Drake – Sunday Are

International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) has taken the first step to stop media from promoting the leaked new song by Wizkid featuring Drake.

‘Hush Up the Silence’ was leaked on Saturday, January 14 and has been made ready for streaming and download on numerous online platforms.

However, an email from IFPI stated in part, ‘We have learned that your service is making available, distributing and/or referring/linking users to infringing copies of the following sound recordings, the copyrights in which are exclusively owned or controlled by one or more IFPI Represented Companies. We are asking for your immediate assistance in stopping this unauthorised activity.’

Wizkid is signed to SONY Music, which the IFPI represents – in terms of trade – along with other recording industry worldwide.

‘The song leaked, we don’t know from where,’ Wizkid’s manager, Sunday Are said when we reached out to him for comments.

‘It’s better for them to take it down. Whoever that leaked it, they should take it down.’

Notable platforms that have taken down the leaked song include Complex Magazine, Miss Info, XXL, and Highsnobiety.

However, Sunday Are assured us the song ‘definitely’ didn’t leak from here (Nigeria), but possibly from the other camp.

While the IFPI and Sony Music are moving to stop global platforms from offering the music for free, millions of Wizkid’s fans would already have the record in their music library.
