The story all around the music industry suggests that Wizkid has parted ways with E.M.E record label controlled by Banky W.
Wizkid, who parted ways with his long time manager and
friend Osagie Osarenkhoe, in September 2012, is said to be dissatisfied with
his contract agreement and sharing quota within the label.
Another obvious indication of the
possible music break-up is that his Twitter Bio now reads, Management
@DisturbingLDN @Godwin Tom with no mention whatsoever of E.M.E Records.
Both parties have not put out a direct word regarding
this matter, as Banky W squashed the break-up reports earlier this week in a
recent interview, saying “Wizkid is still very much part of the E.M.E
family“.
He also added that Wizzy has an international management and recording contract with British rapper, Tinie Tempah’s Disturbing London outfit and Akon’s Konvict Records respectively.
There have been reports stating that Konvict music is
offering Wizkid a more lucrative offer than what E.M.E is offering, which
explains why the singer decided not to drop an album again this year and
opted for the mixtape instead.
If this report of their break up is true, then this goes a long way to explain what our music industry in Nigeria is turning into, where loyalty is continually questioned.
