Admittedly, golliwogs have been accepted from Year One, but a doll? Now that's different. He's black, and as coloured people weren't so numerous in 1940's Britain (when the story first saw light of day) the toys are a little wary. In the second story a strange-looking doll arrives at the nursery. Enid Blyton tales usually end up happily - especially if someone performs a good deed. Lula is desperate to play with the dolls' house again in order to while away the boringness of staying in her room all day? "No way!" is the expected response, but Sheila's a kind-hearted little girl and mother is very pleased when she agrees to lend her beloved house to the invalid. Never again will Sheila let her play with it but 'never' is a long time and when Lula is confined to bed with an illness, there's a tough decision to make.
Her brother Benny fashioned it so there's plenty of talent on that side of the family, but one day a very spoilt and careless girl called Lula visits the children and after living up to her reputation, the dolls' house is worse for the wear. That's right - five reprinted tales are in this lot and the first is about Sheila's dollhouse. Without encouraging lazy artistes who steal from such avenue, the fact still remain, as long as you are yet to do the right thing by publishing the song or registering the right to the song, it will be hard for you to defend the facts that your song is stolen.Review by Terry Gustafson Five excellent EB stories featuring a dolls' house, a shunned nursery newcomer, a chocolate thief, a scooter without a hooter, and a doll's spooky secret. It will even be super funny to think because you brought an idea during a free-style session, that certifies you as the rightful owner of the song. In a country as ours where it’s very difficult to distinguish how the likes of Wande Coal, Wizkid, Davido actually write their song (they all sound –alike and often talk about same topics) because they all seems to write from the same scripts, it will be difficult to defend the written styles or terminology of artistes. Has any of the disputed song ever gone on air and the disputed part of the song evidence to the general public that it was stolen? Within COSON and NCC (Nigeria Copyright Commission), which of these artistes actually secured the rights to their song with any of the two regulating associations for copyrights matters?. If we decide to shift attention from the disgraceful scene created by Wizkid and Dammy Krane when they pronounce their shameful ways of owning some street in lagos to the point of throwing bottles at each other at a Nightclub, let focus on the legal aspect of things. Now let’s get to the point, let’s imagine there are several songs in dispute over copyrights infringements, the nagging question is, who is the thief? Who actually owns the song? Where was the song registered to the so-called artiste? It’s in need of proper analyses by the media but like usual, the multitude will prefer to break the news, publish every sound bites without properly educating their various audience and maybe by so doing, they could educate the artistes participating in the so called drama. With Blackface, defunct member of the Plantashun Boiz joining the circus with his accusation about how Wizkid and 2face stole his song or song idea, this particular drama is in need of a better synopsis beyond that portrayed in the media.
In layman’s terms, the song theft issue between Wizkid and Dammy Krane needs better understanding. In the past few weeks, the music industry is in topsy-turvy.Īs this season of beef among fellow celebrities continue to gather momentum, one of the issues that did catch my curiosity is that of the copyrights infringement.
