More drama is on the way, as music producer and blogger Samklef has stated that he is not at odds with anyone in the entertainment industry, and that he is simply trying to earn what he deserves.
All of this comes just days after the producer demanded unpaid royalties from Banky W, the CEO of EME Music, for his contribution to Wizkid’s blockbuster song “Pakurumo,” which was released eleven years ago.
More drama is on the way, as music producer and blogger Samklef has stated that he is not at odds with anyone in the entertainment industry, and that he is simply seeking what he deserves.
All of this comes just days after the producer claimed unpaid royalties from Wizkid’s blockbuster song “Pakurumo,” which was released eleven years ago, from EME music label boss Banky W.
“You all remembered Banky advised me to drag @wizkidayo based on my publication and royalties for the previous 11 years?” Samklef stated in a series of tweets. After talking with my legal team, I’ve been advised to drag Banky rather than Wizkid because the music was released under the EME label.”
In another tweet, the producer wrote, “Dear @wizkidayo remember we were brothers b4 anything @bankywellington say you comot my name from pakurumo publishing and also know about all my 11 years royalties. And na u give @sonymusic @sonymusicafrica Let’s fix this in peace. Him say make I pour my anger to you. So I will give him 6 days to provide me both his lawyers and wizkidayo lawyers emails. Samklef opened the court house. If he sold the album out, I would like to know b4 next week. Don’t play with me.”
Quoting the same tweet, he also wrote, “I know u don’t read ur dms so I will like u to instruct ur lawyers to reach out” in reference to Wizkid.
We will be keeping our fingers crossed waiting for the next step by Samklef or a response from Wizkid or Sony Music.
