Rapper Ice Prince defends record labels in Nigeria
In the last few months quite a number of Nigerian artists have left their record labels in controversial circumstances...from Wizkid (who later went back) to Jesse Jags to Chuddy K, Brymo, Vector...etc. Ice Prince seems to think the labels are doing a great job...and the artists have themselves to blame if their careers aren't going the way they want. Who agrees with him? See more Tweets after the cut...
Its true that record labels help in bringing up young stars but the disgruntlement that usually comes up is either the employer or employee wanting to be greedy, and most times the former is always the culprit of that greediness!
Ita nt lyk dat....record labels try 2 b greedy wen d artiste is famous,meanwhile contract is a contract.....I urge upcoming artiste 2 b careful wen signing a contract cos all deir instinct @ dat tym is gettin 2 d top..#peeping thru d window#
I take it that the last tweet is for that idoit : kellyhandsome. I think what his trying to say is before you sign up an agreement with any record label, you be able to agree with the rules not later you come out and start opening your mouth.

For a label to give me an official car and house is not enough because he will collect it from me later.If i sign in a record label until 4yrs they have not shown any sign of giving me a good video and promo shows they dont want me to grow.
Totally agree. These labels invest in Artistes when they are and have nothing spending their own resources. If the artiste does not make it at the end of the day, its the labels loss so why complain when they make a lot of money from the artistes that succeed. Its business. Ice you just earned my fullest respect.

Most people need a label to market them etc. nigerian artiste are in a hurry to be on their own not understanding that success involves a lot of things other than singing. However, the labels shouldn't be too greedy.

Pls make I hear word. Record label na ur LGA. Y do people leave companies to form theirs. Food for thot:u can nver b richer than ur boss. Let c if he stays in cho city for d nxt 8yrs...ABOKI
Abeg make we hear word joor, ask Tuface why he left Kennis Music. So why is Brymo's own a case study now, he's not the first n wont be the last. My dear Ice prince dare not sub Brymo, he no fit... if men were God, we would surely be paying for oxygen. Its God that makes man, man cannot make man.
@Anonymous 2:46; Since I am "SO" important to you that you could take out time to observe and analyse me I think you need to come kiss my ass as well, french kiss it! Because I seem to be your celeb or something!
You cant do any personal runs once you are under a record label, its the job of the record label to promote your music. "Promote my album so we could share profit" i think the guy was not asking for more. Choc city took advantage of the poor boy cos he was naive then, the guy should promote himself and manage anything he gets from it. I no too gbadun all these quick riches sef. Na d same fuel bentley and okada dey use.
@Bona,tisa dont tish me nonsene..Think of the many fans you get on here before you write grammar. You dey try sha,but this one should be "he knows his onions" not he "know his onus or anus"
@Anonymous 3:23; Lol! I just can't help but reply some of you guys that talk to me here. Jeez! Are you for real? What dictionary do you use? Pls google the word "Greediness" and see the results you find. So you know of the word called "neologism" and never heard of "Greediness" before? LMFAO! All good though, I just taught you a new word called "Greediness" Happy sunday!

If everyone spits on u...u get wet.... There is a reason ppl are leaving and it needs to be addressed
Iceprince anyday...Love his personality
Nigerian music is poor.. Nothing to cheer about. Just stupid indigenous languages as lyrics. No good lyrics in the past 7 years. Shame.

"Greediness"? When did that word make it into the English dictionary?
Prince Charming, the use of neologisms may be a sign of mental illness. (Just so you know).
@Anonymous 2:46; Since I am "SO" important to you that you could take out time to observe and analyse me I think you need to come kiss my ass as well, french kiss it! Because I seem to be your celeb or something!
