Charles Vumomse’s new song title ‘Oluwa’ sparks online debate

Cameroonian gospel singer, Charles Vumomse has released his brand new single titled, Oluwa but why is the song’s title causing an online debate?

The US-based musician dropped the new track on August 10 but 16 days later, a fan claims the Cameroonian singer was wrong to had titled his song in the Yoruba language (from Nigeria).

The title of the song is causing a social media craze among Cameroonians who strongly argue that so many national musicians love to take upon other cultures, rather than their own, for financial gains alone. Adding that they hold no regards for promoting their own cultures. Meanwhile, they come out publicly to scream the ‘Support Your Own’ campaign online and on media interviews.

However, other fans claim Vumomse‘s marriage to a Nigerian wife may have been the real reason why the singer titled his song in Yoruba. Others argue that music is universal and a singer is entitled to use whatever language he/she deems fit to spread out a message. For others, it’s all about marketing and making profits.

Well, besides all the arguments above, listen to the great song below:
