Blackface has released the screenshot of his conversation with 2face Idibia over the use of his song.

On Thursday, November 9, 2017, the former member of the defunct Plantashun Boyz group posted on his Instagram page a screenshot of a chat he had with him back in 2014 when he confronted 2face over the use of his song 'Let Somebody Love You'.

The song 'Let Somebody Love You' was released in 2014 off 2face Idibia's album 'The Ascension'. Blackface has now replied 2face over the tweet he made on Wednesday, November 8, 2017.

"Sometimes people push you to the wall and you have no choice but to fight back. This is one of my conversation some years back with @official2baba when I Asked him why did he record my song #Letsomebodyloveyou without my #permission and this was his reply saying he thought he told me but really he didn't.. and why add your manager as a writer also? so you guys can steal my publishing money?

"And when asked why you stole my song #Letsomebodyloveyou you Tuface said it wasn't true and maybe my Twitter Account was hacked N after which you unfollowed me but I had this saved for many many years so you can see the level of lies you been feeding fans and people all along

"Your manager can't be a writer in my song boy....its theft And Against the law n funny when you think about all of this....You of all people should know I never could spread false allegations Bout you unless you denying it And claiming innocent as the Tuface wey you be ...This is why you n your creepy agents are trying to silent me via social media n avoid meetings to resolve this, but Jah has got my back OK

"I have more evidence to this effect in case the need for it arises ok tuface & Efe omoregbe & company. Its sad you people forgot what I stand for..I am against corrupt people And bad leaders so una suppose know say e no go easy for all of una when like Hammer i am too legit to quit #BFN," he wrote.
