Culled from Aproko 247
It has exclusively been reported that the
rumoured split between Banky W and Wizkid may
have resulted from an alleged high difference in
what Banky W gets from revenues made by Wizkid.
This, as it
was reported,
has been
bothering
Wizkid until
he
summoned
the courage
to ask for an
improved
contract from Banky W, which hit him (Banky W)
by surprise.
"You know Wizkid is the backbone of EME
music label. The boy (Wizkid) feels that
Banky W has been milking too much from
him with the large chunk of what Banky W
takes from what the boy makes.
"Wizkid has asked for an improved contract
because the present one allocates much of
Wizkid's earnings to Banky W. You know
when you are coming up, you sign any kind
of deal because you just want to climb
stardom.
"That is the situation the boy finds himself
but Banky felt hurt that Wizkid could ask for
an improved offer after what he (Banky W)
has done for him.
"This was the beginning of the problem
between them. The boy even threatened to
leave the label sometimes ago but Banky W
felt it was a joke. He took it with a pinch of
salt. Now, he is at a crossroad and confused
on what to do," a source was quoted to have said.
The online news journal also reported that
Wizkid's mum waded into the matter but
Wizkid reportedly ignored his mum advice
and stood his ground on leaving the label.
"Wizkid's mum has also tried to talk sense to
her son but it seems the guy (Wizkid) is bent
on moving on with his life," the site quoted
its source to have told them.
The rumoured split is rather becoming the same
pattern with D'Banj and Don Jazzy's split of 2012,
which happened at about this period too.
No official statement has been released by either
Banky W or Wizkid on the issue. It is hoped that
the rumoured break-up will be finally laid to rest as
soon as possible
