Wizkid quits EME?

Has Wizkid quit EME Records? If so, what is the cause? There seem to be no end to the barrage of questions on the lips of fans and music buffs after the 22 year-old artiste made some controversial comments via twitter on Friday.

Within minutes, the matter was already a buzz word on several online platform and social media.

His words were short and sharp but the tone could not be mistaken.  “Moving on to start all over again F**k it” he angrily tweeted. Wizkid added later, “Don’t take loyalty for stupidity, don’t.”

This was all that was needed to reveal that there is a serious crisis rocking the five year-old affinity between Wizkid and his record label led by the suave R&B singer cum-executive, Bankole Wellington otherwise known as Banky W.

Interestingly, this comes about the same time last year when the grounds finally caved under the popular Mo’Hits Record jointly owned by crooner, D’Banj and producer, Don Jazzy. Like Wizkid, Don Jazzy broke the bombshell via a series of updates via twitter.

Initially, they were reports of a rift between Wizkid and his EME boss Banky W but the duo vehemently denied insisting that all was well with their 5 year-old music union.

But that is not all. Wizkid’s outburst on Twitter is not the only curious element about the strained relationship between the artiste and label. The artiste went further by removing EME/ Konvict tag off his profile on Twitter and Instagram. His new profile now reads “Management GodwinTom his personal manager and DisturbingLDN.

Showoffmag investigations have however revealed that Banky W is the reason Wizkid may be leaving EME as the pop star has shown his displeasure over how revenues generated by him is being handled by the record label boss.  Banky W allegedly owns a significant percentage of Wizkid’s revenue and he wanted that off his contract, which Banky W didn’t agree to. Sources also added that Wizkid paid a significant amount to have his contract terminated from EME.

Wizkid has been in the UK since the beginning of the year and has not hidden the fact that he is now working with DisturbingLondon, a management team that also manages UK rapper, Tinnie Tempah.

Another source claims Banky W and Wizkid are not on good terms and this was part of the reason Wizkid moved from the EME mansion to his personal home. Although no official statement has been made as at press time, the signs are visible enough to claim that the Pakurumo crooner may be on his way out of EME records.

Showoffmag is monitoring the development as more revelations are expected to emerge. A source confided that an official statement will soon be made by EME Records but it was yet to be made available as at press time.
