Nigerian music producer, Samklef has issued out a 6 day warning to his former boss cum politician, Bankole Wellington over publishing and royalties rights.
WITHIN NIGERIA reported that Samklef had dragged his former record label boss, Banky W for ripping him off Wizkid’s album, which he produced and for being controlling.
He alleged that Banky W humiliated him and told Wizkid to rip him off his Pakurumo song right in his presence. Samklef further claimed that this was one of the reasons Wizkid left the label.
Banky reminded him that his own name isn’t included in the album and he doesn’t enjoy any royalties from it.
He told him to channel his energy to the right source as he isn’t in charge.
Responding, Samklef sternly warned Banky not to mess with him as his lawyers told him to hold him responsible. He wrote:
“U all remembered Banky W told me to drag @wizkidayo based on my publishing and royalties for the past 11 years? After consulting with my team of Lawyers, have been told to drag Banky not Wizkidayo cause the album was released under EME. So I will give him 6 days to provide me both his lawyers and wizkidayo lawyers emails. Samklef open court house. If he sold the album out. I would like to know b4 next week. Don’t play with me”.
“The album was released under EME. So na @bankywellingtom go need drag @wizkidayo as I want drag am, more so Nobody is above the law! Getting all my money. Strictly business no emotions”.
