The Boston-based rapper has been under attack for allegedly ‘impersonating’ Ghana’s Joey B.

“You people need to realise he (Joey B) is the fraud when it comes to an artiste’s name,” the American rapper alleged in a Facebook post adding that “straight from the Wikipedia page that I set up only to wake up the next morning and have it all redone by his marketing team.”

America’s Joey B’s full Facebook post reads (unedited):

“Dear confused people:

I was born in the USA (Boston area to be exact) I have been rapping since in was introduced to 2pac at the age of 9. I was also Born Joseph Barbieri, you guessed it! A shortened version of the name is Joey B.

This whole narrative that I stole Joey from Ghana’s name to make money off of him is a joke. LMAOOOO it's my government issued name.

I've never listened to Ghana's Joey B, I never intend to and I eat off my own work NOT by scamming off his name.

If anything.....You People need to realize he's the fraud when it comes to An artists name: straight from the Wikipedia page that I SET UP only to wake up the NEXT morning and have it all redone by his marketing team:::: "Darryl Paa Kwesi Bannerman-Martin" known under the stage name Joey B" Guy has 5 names to choose from and says "yeah I think I'm gonna go by Joey B". Give me a break.... with all that said best of luck to Joey from Ghana on his career.”

Ghana’s Joey B is yet to respond to the claims by the American rapper.
