Bimbo Ademoye wins copyright battle over viral hit 'Where Love Lives' (18M+ views). Full victory story!
In a triumphant turn for independent filmmakers everywhere, acclaimed actress, producer, and director Bimbo Ademoye has emerged victorious in a fierce copyright dispute that temporarily threatened the monetization of her record-breaking YouTube film Where Love Lives.
Released on Christmas Eve 2025, the star-studded rom-com—featuring Uzor Arukwe, Chioma Nwosu, Osas Ighodaro, and more—exploded to over 18 million views in weeks, captivating audiences with its sharp take on marriage, luxury living, and neighborhood drama.
But success invited trouble: a false copyright claim on a licensed soundtrack (cleared with full approval from artist Ugoccie) was filed by an individual accused of digital theft, halting earnings and sparking public outrage. Bimbo stood firm, publicly calling out the issue and refusing any out-of-court settlement.
Now, justice prevails! The claim has been resolved in her favor, restoring full monetization and affirming her rights. Celebrating the win, Bimbo declared,
“God Doesn’t Play About Me”
A powerful statement that's resonating across Nollywood.
This victory isn't just personal—it's a bold stand against online piracy and a win for creators protecting their hard work in the digital space.
