His tweet however caused divided opinions with many wondering if playing songs in a ceremony was wrong without a permission from the owner of the song.

So before I can play any song in a party, I should go and ask for permission from the artists that sang the song first?

Why was the song released in the first place?

Don't TV & Radio Station play songs?
Don't DJs play song at Night clubs to entertain audience?

You no get talk.

You don't know how intellectual property laws go… Things they won't try abroad, but we wanna do it and get away with it…

You can't do that without permission in a civilized country
