Ugandan singer Dwiz Playboy is taking his dispute over the song Bukutu toward the legal route, revealing that he has visited Katwe Police Station to obtain a police reference as he considers his next move in the ownership controversy involving Sheebah and Karole Kasita’s project of the same name.
In a TikTok video, Dwiz said he was serious about pursuing the matter and wanted to explore legal options over what he believes is his rightful ownership of the track. He described the situation as deeply painful and said he was prepared to take the dispute beyond public statements.
“The fact that I’m serious about the issue of claiming my song, I’ve decided to seek legal action at Katwe Police Station and get a reference as I figure out what to do next,” Dwiz said.
He added that he felt it was time to pursue the matter legally, describing the situation as something that had caused him considerable emotional pain.
The singer’s move follows his public claim that he originally released Bukutu in 2025. According to Dwiz, he was left heartbroken after discovering that Sheebah had released a project bearing the same title, which he believes belongs to him.
The dispute has now moved beyond his initial public complaints, with the visit to Katwe Police Station marking a step in his stated effort to explore legal remedies. However, obtaining a police reference does not, by itself, establish ownership of a song or determine whether copyright infringement has occurred.
For now, Dwiz’s claims remain allegations. The information provided does not establish whether a formal complaint has been registered, whether any legal proceedings have commenced, or whether the parties have responded to the ownership dispute.
The central question is whether Dwiz can substantiate his claim to Bukutu through evidence of authorship, release history and any applicable ownership rights. Until the dispute is resolved through the appropriate process, the song’s ownership remains contested from his account, rather than a legally established finding against Sheebah or Karole Kasita.
