The much talked about D’banj’s 10th year anniversary on stage has come and gone but the memory still lingers.
It was reported that so many Nigerian
artistes including his label mates were not invited to the concert. And
confirming that, his former label mate, D’Prince, in a recent chat with
Saturday Beats, said he was not invited.
He explained that he was not in town and
perhaps, that may be why he didn’t get any invitation. He emphasised
that there is no quarrel between him and D’banj as they are close
friends.
“D’banj is my very good friend and
anytime I see him, we hug and talk. There is no beef between us. The
truth is that I was not in town when D’banj had his anniversary.”
Explaining
why his other label mates were not present at the concert, D’Prince
said, “Tiwa Savage is pregnant and Dr. Sid is also not in town while Don
Jazzy was in South Africa. I was not in town and even before I
travelled, I did not get a personal invitation to the event.”
Commenting on D’banj’s recent interview
where he spoke about how Mo’Hit broke up, D’Prince said he thought the
issue was long gone and forgotten.
“To be frank, I thought that chapter was
closed about two years ago, I never knew that D’banj is still granting
interviews regarding the split because I thought we had gone through the
whole story, leaked e-mail, hearsays and the likes. I am so happy that
D’banj and Mavin Records are doing great. I don’t want us to keep
putting the fans in the mishmash. The fans would always be vulnerable.
The fans would always want to be entertained and we would always be the
puppets that entertain them.
“I think D’banj was speaking based on his
feelings and the fans reacted. I will always have love for Mo’hits, DB
records and Mavin Records because at the end of the day, it is the music
that would keep us relevant. It is what brought us to where we are in
the first place. We should all concentrate on our work and progress. We
should love one another and not hate. There is no fight or war between
us. What matters most is moving forward and making music. I feel that he
was pressured to do the interview; he did so and expressed his
feelings. I may agree and disagree with some of the things that he said
but at the end of the day, I am still going to stick to love, peace and
harmony,” he said.
D’Prince is currently ecstatic about the success of his current song, Oyo, and is working on his next album due to be out very soon.
