The singer explained that he rejected the record deal from the DMW boss because he was not ready to be in competition with other artistes in the label.
Barry Jhay stated this during a chat on Echo Room.
He noted that the last musician Davido signed at the time was Peruzzi.
According to the artiste, he and Davido had worked on a song ‘Only You’ and OBO was impressed so he got his lawyer, Prince to draw up a contract, but the deal did not go through.
Barry Jhay stated that there was too much competition amongst Mayorkun, Peruzzi and others in DMW which he was not comfortable with.
He further explained that when the ‘FEM’ crooner tried to sign him, he felt that was not what he needed even though OBO and everyone in the music label supported his career.
Nigerian musician, Olawale Ashimi, popularly known as Brymo, has tendered an apology to Nigerians from the South-East region over his anti-Igbo remarks.
Naija News recalls that Brymo had in a series of tweets made some tribally motivated posts against Igbos.
One of his tweets said, “F**k The Ndi Igbo!! To Hell With It!!”.
This was greeted with heavy backlash from netizens. A petition was subsequently launched on Change.org for his AFRIMMA nomination to be revoked with immediate effect.
However, it seems that the artist has had a change of heart as he apologized for his past behaviour on his Instagram live session.
According to the ‘Ara’ Crooner, the fracas began after he disapproved of award-winning author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s decision to turn down a national honour and accept a traditional Igbo chieftaincy title from her hometown.
He stated that this was a wrong step considering that the region was clamouring for the presidency.
