For the first time since Square Records sacked their artiste, Akinmayokun ‘May D’ Awodumila, the label boss, Jude ‘Engees’ Okoye has explained his dismissal.
The multi-talented music video director told HipOnTV in a recent interview about why the ‘Ile ijo’ singer was dropped from the label.
According to the older Okoye, May D was making very tall demands on the label. ‘When
it was time to officially sign him (May D), that was when the problem
came up. He wanted to have what Psquare had and so we had to let him
go,’ he said.
Since signing with P-Square in 2011, May D had become a household name, with the release of his hit singles, ‘Soundtrack’ the infectious ‘Ile-ijo’ and the more recent ‘Got me high.’
Since getting dropped from the label in
August of 2012, the winner of the Best R&B single at The Headies
2012, has gone on to establish his own label, Confam Entertainment.
