| DON JAZZY & OLAMIDE |
In what would be termed a quick resolution, Don
Jazzy the maverick boss of the Mavins Record label and the owner of the YBNL
label Olamide Adedeji, have made up after their controversial outburst in the
recently held 2015 Headies Award ceremony which held in Lagos, Nigeria. They
have even gone ahead to release a joint apology to the organizers of the
Headies Awards and to their fans.
The rift caused by the award of the Next Rated
Artiste title to Reekado Banks of the Mavins group for his Katapot track, which
was opposed by Olamide when he mounted the stage with one of his label’s stars,
Adekunle Gold who won the Best Alternative Act for Shade. Olamide questioned
the organizers choice for not giving that award to his protege, Lil Kesh and
went on to say more unsavory things before storming off the stage.
Thereafter, when Don Jazzy went upstage
with his whole crew to receive his Special Recognition Awards also took on
Olamide for the comments he had earlier made and ended by saying “Egbon
Olamide, if you want the car, come and take it.” This was in reference to the
car which comes with the Next Rated Award. Don Jazzy even went on to inform
Olamide that he had already promised to buy cars for his acts Reekado Banks and
Korode Bello before the Headies.
The confrontation between Olamide and
Don Jazzy continued their battle on social media with other musicians and even
fans weighing in to take sides with their favorite in the war of words.
Well, this is all over as they made up
and peace returns to the music world, after all its anew year. Let’s hope this
peace trickles down to the other artistes who took part in the war and of
course the fans.
