'Square Record & May D split - A repeat of 9ice & Ruggedman?' | MayD booted off Love Afrobeat 2012 Festival

By Dunlero | AmehDaily

The vitiation of the contract between May D and Square records came as a great shock, the medium used by Jude Okoye to announce the contract cancellation increased the tempo of the shock.
 
A contract that was not contracted through Blogs and online friends was terminated through these media. This was reminiscent of the Federal Government sacking of the former EFCC boss on-air. Jude should have shown more understanding and not re-acting to the spur of the moment irrespective of the "irreconcilable" differences between square records and the artist – May D.
 
May D profile was on the raise but this mis-understanding can mar his career if care is not taken to salvage this bundle of talent. On the surface, May D should have been more submissive and learn more of the trade rather than competing with the bigger stars that made him. I read from several blogs that despite riding a Hummer 2 jeep, he complains about the "harsh" treatment been meted to him by the Okoye's label. Appearing in re-mix having Akon or Rick Ross hasn't made him to be that super star.
 
Upcoming artists should first found their feet rather than trying to fly, the haste of these one track a-life-time artistes is killing their career. The haste makes the artists to un-necessarily arrogate a false air of celebrities to themselves when they should still be a backup singer. Better to learn how to stoop to conquer than been carried away.
 
It is a Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD) when it gets to the heads of these artists. I believe that if the mis-understanding between May D and Square records is not sorted out, the guy might not make meaningful music going forward. Look at 9ice, I believe he has been preoccupied by the fight with Rugged man and the former colleagues at Coded Tunez.
 
The upcoming artist should take it easy and learn the rules before they "Blow"
