Former Mohits label co-owner, D’Banj has been signed on top United Kingdom record label, Mercury Records.

His name and picture has also been updated on Mercury Records’ official website to confirm the deal.

Mercury Records presently has Elton John, Gabriel Bruce MIA and others signed under it.

Mercury Records is also a subsidiary of Universal Music Group same as Island Def Jam where Kanye West, Jay Z, Mariah Carey and other top US artiste belong to.

D’Banj’s twitter profile has since been changed to reflect Mercury Records on it.

His new twitter profile now reads DB/Good Music/Mercury/IDJ. IDJ means Island Def Jam.

Its said τ̲̅ђa̶̲̥̅̊†̥ nothing lasts forever, so no one should blame 'em both.
D'Banj opted for greener pastures & Jazzy still believes in the crew.

I have been wondering what genre of music Dbanj will record in the US and UK,because as far as I know Oliver Twist kind of sound will certainly not appeal to vast majority of US/UK fans.
Signing contract is one thing staying relevant and bringing returns to your record label is another,let wait as time will tell.
Re: Mercury Records In The UK Signs D’banj by confetti(f): 4:36pm On Apr 20, 2012
Hum! Now am beginning to believe this Illuminati theory. This is if trully D'bang has joined the crew of J-Z and co. It might actually be true this is the reason for the split, perhaps Don J doesnt really want to sell his soul. Better a pauper than serving "Lusibaby" as JZ calls him all in the name of fame.

Stop chatting crap! Jeeeeez! I'm tired of all this illuminati rubbish! Being signed by a UK label is a natural step for any artist who raises enough dust to attract attention. It's a gamble for the record label involved and this is new territory for international labels, ie afrobeats. It could go either way. They could loose money or they could gain massively. No one knows which way it will go.
