Now, British rapper Mic Righteous is telling his version of the story afer Naughty Boy threw him under a bus.
In a long Facebook post Tuesday morning taking credit for the leak, Mic Righteous explains, in part, “I got fed up of waiting And took matters into my own hands regardless of repercussions, leaking that song with Zayn was a way for me to set the fact that I’m doing this independently in stone. The fact naughtyboy straight up acted like he never knew me, and said i stole the song from a hard drive in his studio (when me, him and Zayn sat there and recorded it together) made it clear to me these fame hungry fatties only wanna be around you if you hot.”
Tbh I got songs with Zayn, i got songs with Emeli Sande, Jay Electronica, Nas, (the list goes on) the reason i never…
