Nigerian hiphop singer Abdulrasheed Bello, well known as JJC Skillz, has accused music moguls Don Jazzy and D’banj, of conspiring with others to betray him many years ago.
JJC, in a recent interview with Echo Room, claimed that the duo and others betrayed him despite his accommodating, feeding and clothing them as struggling artists in the UK.
He said, “Don Jazzy, Dbanj, Ayo, DJ Abass; all of them conspired against me. Taz brought a guy called Don Jazzy to me, and Ayo came through Abass. I met them because they were running a TV station.
“One day I came to them and said, ‘You guys are obviously well connected to Nigeria, and me, I am a JJC. I just need somebody to introduce me to the right people to work with in Nigeria.’ And they accepted that they were going to help me and they connected me to Bankulli.
“Don Jazzy and D’banj were under me then. So, these people who were supposed to introduce me back home to Nigeria, had plans that I didn’t know about. Then I heard something from Ruggedman saying that D’banj said I cheated them when they were working with me in the UK and that they are leaving my group.
“I was shocked because nobody knew them back then, I was the one taking them to shows, accommodating, feeding and clothing them. So, how can I be cheating when you haven’t made any money?”
D’banj, Don Jazzy and others are yet to react to JJC’s allegations.
