OJB Jezreel

1.     OJB Jezreel: With due respect to the producers before him, OJB gave birth to the modern Nigerian music.His peak was the production of African Queen (which is still one of the highest points of the Nigerian music industry). Of course tracks, like “Right Here” by Tuface (written and produced by OJB), “Searching”  and most recently “Locho” that was written, produced and sang by OJB himself, can compete well, African queen just seem to have eclipsed them all.

Wizkid to return to former music label, EME

Click banner for more info

If everything goes according to plan, Wizkid will soon be returning to his former music label, EME Music Group, this is according to a reliable industry source. The source revealed to me exclusively that Wizkid and EME bosses have been going back and forth for the last couple of weeks through their lawyers trying to agree on new terms of them working together again.

"Wizkid leaving EME was just his way of pushing the bosses at the label to take him seriously and increase his earning percentage. When he joined EME he wasn't a star but then he became a mega star and was making a lot of money for the label and they still didn't increase his earning percentage so he took a walk. Now they are working on a new contract that will favour Wizkid." The source said

I hear in the new contract being drafted, EME will not take a dime from Wizkid's international deals. When they start working together again, remember you read it here first! :-)
