He continued by saying that rather than pay the royalties, Efe Carter offered to buy him out for 100,000 naira.

Efe Carter reacted to the claim of Tiga when he said, “Hotkid get verse for Machala song, I personally tell producer X to remove it because Berri cry give me say Hotkid go collect him shine for the song. Now you dey claim sa na you get song for Instagram,”
