What seems to have become a trend in the Nigerian music industry is
artistes falling apart with their record labels. The last 12 months have
recorded such occurrences, one of the most popular was between Wizkid
and Banky W, the EME boss.
This time, it is between, Chuddy K and Wale Kuku of SQN. Reacting to
the allegation of leaving the label illegally, the publicist to “gaga
crazy” crooner, Emmanuel Abba, said that there was a breach of contract
between Chuddy K and SQN and as a result, they have to terminate the
contract through their lawyer.
“The contract was signed without the consent of Chuddy K’s lawyer and
the label since then, has not been keeping to the terms of the
agreement. They are not paying him well, they are owing him up to four
shows now. As far as I am concern, there was a breach of contract and as
a result, the contract has been terminated.
Chuddy K is in South Africa now celebrating with D’Banj on his birthday,” he said.
Responding, Wale Kuku, SQN boss said that the label is not owing the
singer any dime and that nobody has the right to do any business with
Chuddy K except through him.
“That’s very impossible, because we are very thorough, principled and
professional. Till date, we don’t owe Chuddy K a dime, he can’t
possibly confront the record label with such a statement” Wale said. The
latest gist is that Chuddy K has moved on with his own label called,
“Kent records” just like Wizkid did.
