For a while now rumor has it that KoKo master, D’Banj, and his management team have been planning to
sign in rapper Olamide to the his label. However, Olamide turned down
the offer, preffering to roll alone for now.
Olamide,
who does not want to play the fool at this phase of his career, politely
told D’Banj that he was not ready to surrender some of his powers,
especially having to be booked for shows only by D’Banj’s management
outfit, pleaded for time to even think about the offer as he still wants
to work with his present team and taking things as they come for now.
He believes that for now, there is nothing D’banj could do for him that he can’t do by himself. 'In
the future, I will consider his offer. If anybody wants me, he should
have unfettered access to me. I am just starting out in the profession’,
he allegedly told close friends.
Apparently, he would have been
blocked from having direct access to his clients and that will reduce
his share from his appearance fees. He does not like the bottle necks
and some terms that will make it difficult for him to be reached all
because D’Banj wants his value to rise. That may happen, but what
eventually gets to Olamide will be peanuts”, A source disclosed
He added that 'the success that Olamide is enjoying now informed his decision to opt out of the deal because there is nothing, apart from management offer, that he stands to benefit from.
“Olamide can be
easily reached by anybody and his fees are still okay. The moment he
signs the deal, he will be getting fewer shows, though huge fees, but
will lose many of his grassroot fans to the elitist crowd D’Banj
belongs” he added.
Since D’Banj couldn’t have the rapper, he has reportedly reached out to sign Durella.
