Every now and then squabbles between an artist and his erstwhile record label always pops up in the Nigerian music scene. Artist – Label ‘war’ is not just subject to the Nigerian entertainment landscape, it also stretches into the global music horizon. But then I’m just particular about what happens in my own country.
Year after year you definitely get to read a news headline which notifies you of an internal conflict between an artist and his once very jolly music imprint.
An interesting similarity in all these fracas between record labels and artists is that once a relatively unknown youngster gains astronomical rise via the platform provided him by his music imprint, the label becomes too small for him. Or perhaps the artists believes they have come a long way and they can now call the shots. Of course the artist is churning out millions weekly for his label, so therefore he would love to run the show. One of such cases is the Cynthia Morgan and Northside Record rift.
Which also bring us to the question in everyone’s lips; Where is Alewa House artist Adehkings?
Nigerians are now expressing obvious concern for the “Soke” crooner music halt, since the release of his “Africa United” EP last year 2019.
According to our source, the singer was tossed out of the House in February 2020, which explains his sudden disappearance in the music scene.
The question in the lips of everyone now is, why? What happened?
Feel free to comment below and tell us what you think is going on in Alewa House.
