Why I bailed 9ice out with N2m - D'banj

D’Banj has finally opened up on why he bailed out 9ice with N2m to help the “Gongo Aso” rave complete his video shoots. MTV Base Award winner, D’Banj, said he gave the money to help a “cool headed friend” out of crisis, even as he still wants to help his colleagues out in the music industry.

Speaking with http://nigeriafilms.com at Planet 1, Maryland, while attending a fashion show, the “Mo Gbona Feli Feli” rave said he once needed help to shoot his first video, “Tongolo”, few years back, but none came his way until a friend from UK intervened.

“That was the turning point. 9ice is the current rave, N2m is not what should stop his video production.” “We are all one in this music industry, I’m just too happy to help a colleague out, that’s all,” he said.” Just few weeks back, 9ice had problems raising N2m to complete the nine shots for his video, but was only able to raise N7m.

Puffy T, the hottest video producer now, insisted on a million per shoot and wouldn’t handle the job unless 9ice came up with N9m. Eventually, words got to D’Banj on the plight of 9ice and he silently paid up the balance for him. 9ice was full of praises of D’Banj, confessing that he was surprised D’Banj, whom he never even approached, would do such.

“I did not go to anybody for assistance, so you can understand my reaction when Puffy T called that I should get ready to begin shooting as D’Banj had bailed me out.” Would you have stopped the video if D’Banj had not come in? http://nigeriafilms.com asked.” Of course not. What happened was that I had a wedding at hand then and wouldn’t want it to be stalled.

“I knew I would be able to raise the money after the wedding, but D’Banj has hastened my job for me. I’m excited and grateful”, he responded. As for D’Banj, “I’m no father-xmas though, but there’s no length I won’t go to help a colleague who really deserves it.” 9ice says the video will be out in few weeks.

9mil to shoot a video!
Lord av mercy!
Money dey entertainment o,even producer dey make millions!

as 4 d donation,i feel indifferent really

shooting a 9 milion dollar video entails that u will be making revenue from that video soonest? at least a 30% profit margin from that 9 million. wow. some guys are missnig the point.

5 big shows will get him that money back. I just hope he is tracking his cost vs income,

y most any of this be for public consumption really

As i write now Gongo aso video is not been shot and the video will be shot by same guy who shot lil money and also it will take 5days or so to be shot and the money is 1.something million altogether, and dban been a great fan of gongo aso he wanted to take the responsibility of the shooting but 9ice will add some money to what dbanj offers , you can see, 9ice did not beg him, dbanj was only a fan and also the sales of the video cd album, afrobest are calling him for 6mil whil tjoe dey bargain for 10mil, like the poster said, if only gongo aso video is 9m, how much 9ice go come make for the sales of the album?
  Make investigation before you dey post anything

Lets hope we can cleary see where the 9 million was spent when the video is released.  I did find it strange he did a video for Street Credibility and not one for Gongo so looking forward to seeing the video.

More grease to D'banjs sessy elbows.

abiii oooooo

I dont want to believe this story but if it's really true. Must d'banj let the public know that he bailed 9ice out of his predicament?
Revelations like these should have atleast been made long after the video has hit the shelves and not now. As a matter of fact, i dont believe this story.
