Baby face saga: Don Jazzy dumps Wande Coal, releases statement

Mavin Records have released a statement
that officially announces the exit of ‘Go Low’
hit maker Wande Coal from Mavin Records.
The statement reads…
It is with deep regret that we officially
announce the departure of recording artist
Wande Ojosipe, popularly known as Wande
Coal, from Mavin Records due to
irreconcilable differences.
Over the past few months, Mavin Records
has made a concerted move to consolidate its
position in the Nigerian music industry.
Mavin has pursued a renewed ethos to raise
its standards of quality and professionalism
to a world-class level. Wande's vision has
not aligned with ours and a few months ago
all parties mutually agreed that a separation
would be the best course of action.
Legal parties on both sides have spent the
past six months trying to reach an amicable
solution in terms of musical property rights.
However the decision by Wande Coal to
release 'Baby Face' purportedly as his own
material is a direct breach of intellectual
property law and compelled an immediate
clarification on our part.
Both Mavin Records and Wande Coal have
enjoyed a remarkable run in the course of
their working relationship. It is unfortunate
that conflicting priorities contributed to the
premature curtailment of a hitherto fruitful
accord.
Mavin Records reaffirms its goal to
constantly provide high quality music to our
fans and introduce new and exciting talent
into the industry.
We wish Wande Coal the best of luck in all
his future endeavours.
Signed
Management
