Anatii threatens to take legal action against AKA

Johannesburg - Rapper Anatii has threatened to take legal action against AKA over his track, Composure.

AKA released his diss track, Composure earlier this week. In it, he takes shots at Anatii for wanting to charge him R80 000 for a beat (Read more about that here).

Anatii has hit back at the song, saying AKA used the beat and opening verse "without knowledge or consent."

"It is with a sense of disbelief and outrage that Anatii and his management have discovered that AKA has, without Anatii's knowledge or consent, unlawfully made use of Anatii's original beat and opening verse in his latest release 'Composure'," Anatii's managment said in a statement on Friday.

They say they intend to take action against AKA.

"This constitutes a clear infringement of the copyright which vests in that material. Anatii intends to take such action to enforce all its available legal rights as are appropriate in the circumstances currently prevailing," the statement read.
