It had been widely rumoured that Tonto
Dikeh was kicked off
D'banj's record label due to the fact that she
was not generating
enough money for the company.
'Emergency' singer, D'banj has now gone
on record, stating that nothing of such happened.
He said, “I had a meeting with my team last year and I told everyone of them, my producers, songwriters and artistes that this
year, they have to go and work harder than they have ever done in the past years. I advised them to sit
up and I even included myself even though I am their boss. That is why you would notice
that I am not using my in-house producers, I am branching out to get
producers from around the country.
“For instance, I never met the producer of the song,Emergency, before we did the song. Even the song that I am about to release now which features Oskido and some other South African artistes was done by a Nigerian
that I had never met before.
“I made up my mind that I was not going to do things the same way we used to do them anymore;
there is no way we keep doing the same
thing and expect to produce different results. We are all talented and I believe
that all the artistes I
took under my wings
are very talented.
"Tonto Dikeh can stand alone because she is very talented, they are all big brands and from
their looks, you know they have great talents. All I did was
to tell them that we
should look for ways to make things work better.
"Also, when a woman is married, it is a different ball game. I have not seen her since the marriage and of
course, now she has a child. She has been out of the country and I would say to you that the last thing she said to me was that she
wanted to work on her foundation. I believe when she comes back, she would take some
decisions.”
