D'banj can never go broke.
All those saying he is broke should put that energy in making a name for themselves and stop disturbing an already established man.

I feel you... wink on point

What's all this fuss about Dbanj being broke?

Ok how about if anyone can show me Dbanj's bank balance, I'll send that person a $5 Starbucks Gift Card! All you have to do is pay $19.95 for postage and handling. But wait, there's more! Act now and get TWO, yes, that's right, TWO Starbucks $5 gift cards, just pay separate P&H of $19.95 each! But you must act quickly!

How can a man with properties at home and abroad be broke. How can a man that commands sponsorship from multinationals and banks be broke, how can a man with multiple endorsements be broke, how can a global ambassador be broke, how can an artist with the highest appearance fee(since 2010) be broke. How can a man who is a landlord of many buildings be owing house rent. Small artistes like 9ice, Dr Sid, flavour, Timaya and even Wizkid are all landlords, how much more Eja nla, bangalee himself.

I don't really care about D'Banj or Don Jazzy but did you seriously write the above?

If global companies can be bankrupt then........

A simple search of bankrupt billionaires would do you a whole lot of good.

Not that it is any of my business...

But where is the written rule that once you have it, you will always have it?

Heck! Mike Tyson blew $300million. Evander Holyfield is barely hanging on after being worth millions of dollars. Allen Iverson had millions.
There is a whole lot of broke artists and ex-stars in the universe. Are you aware that Dan Amokachi used to have a private jet? What of
Victor Ikpeba who used to live like a king?

My point is that D'banj being broke is not news. He will not be the first and will not be the last.
I get am before no be property.

Every effort to make money by D'Banj does not equate to being well off financially.
After all, even if he is truly broke, is he not supposed to continue to hustle? Or you want him to move back to the village?
People can speculate all they want, only D'Banj knows his true financial status. It is either he is ok or he is living on past glory.

My 10 differences between Dbanj and DonJazzy

1. Family Background
2. Mohits Records
3. Generousity
4. Business sense
5. Endorsements
6. Foundation
7. Influence
8. Diversification
9. Music Concerts
10. Age & Humility


1. FAMILY BACKGROUND
Donjazzy has always hidden details about his family background obviously based on the fact that its nothing to be proud of. As you all know, his brother Dprince is from same mother but different fathers. However dbanj has a solid close knit family with kids brought up with christian values. No wonder we hear such inspiring lyrics from some of his songs like mobolowowon, olorunmaje, mr endowed(remix) and the recent collabo with oritsefemi(double wahala remix). Mohits first crib was given to them by dbanj's mum(a bungalow at michael otedola estate) and their first official car too. dbanj is from a good and admirable family with successful siblings and responsible parents.



2. MOHITS RECORD
Despite the misinterpretation in the media that donJazzy owned mohits, it became clear to all(after the break up) that its was a partnership between the two friends. They both owned the record label 50-50 and dbanj had more controlling power(that's why he could sign artistes at will). Donjazzy never owned mo-hits records, it was a partnership between both of them(that was why donjazzy had to drop the name when they broke up). When 2face left kennis music or when wizkid left EME, tell me did baba keke and banky W change their business names. Dbanj even had more shares in mo-hits. He was everything and controlled the label. That was why all concerts they performed back then, you will always see "Dbanj & Mo-hit all stars" on handbills or bill boards. The whole group leveraged on his brand name.


[b]3. GENEROUSITY
Donjazzy is a stingy and greedy guy that was why wande coal left when he felt cheated. He was just wasting the boy's life away performing at shows but no album to show for it. Wande left and immediately was endorsed by telecoms giant globacom; and released his own songs under his black diamond. If you doubt me search it on google on "why wande coal left mo-hits.

I pity those three new recruits(Reekado banks, Di'ja and Korede bello), donjazzy will just keep using them and hiding under the disguise of "mavin all stars" but they won't av any album to their name except they wise up like tiwa savage who spends her own money to make videos(backed by support of her manager/husband)

Dbanj is arguably the most generous artiste in africa. He once said when asked how rich he was in an interview. I quote "money is just a material thing and vanity upon vanity, all is vanity". He gave wande coal a brand new Prado after he crashed the car he won from Hiphop World awards(now the headies). He bought six range Rovers few years. gave D’Prince an LR 3, after he crashed it, he bought him a Range, and it’s no news that he bought two Bentleys; one for himself and one for Don Jazzy.

DonJazzy has never even bought a car for his brother Dprince so how can he buy for others in Mohits. And after the MoHits break up with Jazzy, Dbanj bought a Benz C-class worth over N9million for Kswitch and a luxury automobile for himself - the Aston Martin Vantage V8. He also got a 2014 Honda CRV jeep for his sister as a wedding gift. What a generous man.



4. BUSINESS SENSE
At Mohits, Donjazzy was in charge of music production while dbanj ran the business aspect. There are many music producers eg lengudury, idcabbasa, Jmartins, Dr frabz, J-soul, Spellz, Sosick, Sarz, TY-mix, Cobhams etc to mention a few. So dbanj doesn't need jazzy to make good music(as he can simply employ the services of any good producer) but jazzy needs dbanj to be business oriented. No wonder dbanj has achieved much more business wise after the Mohits break up. But all jazzy has been doing is just making music(that majority of the income goes to marketers like obaino music, Tjoe records and Ahbu ventures) the three kings that run alaba international.

In 2013, D’banj received an invitation from Hennessy to visit France and was the headlining act for the 2013 edition of Hennessy Artistry. In 2014, Dbanj's song "Bother You” was the official soundtrack for the highly acclaimed and world renowned “Half of a Yellow Sun“ movie adapted from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's best selling novel.
[/b]

5. ENDORSEMENTS
Don jazzy has very lucrative endorsement deals including one with Loya Milk worth about N50m. MTN is worth N25m, and his endorsement with Samsung Africa also made some millions.

In 2013, D'banj was named the Bank of Industry (BOI) ambassador worth multi millions. In Nov 2013, D'banj re-signed a multi-million Naira deal with Globacom, the company he parted ways with in 2010 where he cashed in over $500,000. In October 2014, D'banj was named the official African ambassador for Beats by Dre(a company owned by Apple). The biggest ever endorsement deal by any african musician.

For a software giant like apple and perhaps the most innovative infotech company in the world notable for unique products like ipods, ipads, macintosh OS, apple MAC laptops, iphones, apple watch etc to chose dbanj out of the multiple artistes making hits in africa is quite awesome. Indeed this man is highly favoured.


6. FOUNDATION
Donjazzy from our records has no operational foundation. D'banj is the founder of Koko Foundation for Youth and Peace Development and has been involved in many humanitarian and charitable programs both locally and abroad. This act has opened doors for him globally and with his great sense of humour he keeps endearing himself to top executives locally and on the african continent.


7. INFLUENCE
Dbanj is far more influential that Jazzy and has become a global brand. Dbanj has met with the who is who in the world through the ONE campaign and other platforms. Bill gates, Mo Ibrahim, Aliko dangote, mike adenuga, femi otedola, goodluck jonathan, issa hayatou, sepp blatter etc. Dbanj performed at the CAF nations cup in 2014 a deal worth over $200,000. He also has relationships with top american artistes like kanye west, Jay Z, beyonce, Snoop, 2chains, Big sean to mention a few.

He is also Nigeria's first United Nations Youth Ambassador for Peace. Dbanj is the ONE campaign ambassador in support of agriculture investments. He was among the few stars invited to the prestigious white house to raise awareness on agriculture in Nigeria as part of the Bono’s global humanitarian group. He also led 18 other African artists on the song "cocoa na chocolate" and won Best African Collaboration at the All Africa Music Awards in 2014.



8. DIVERSIFICATION
Don jazzy is only known for music and his nite club but dbanj has succeeded as a musician, entertainer, ambassador and now diversified into various forms of business especially agriculture(cocoa farming to be precise and his koko garri that has been endorsed by the richest nigerians). Following the foot steps of foreign artistes before him that have diversified into other profitable ventures; knowing fully well that you cant keep churning out hit songs for life.



9. MUSIC CONCERTS
After the break up of mohits, dbanj's DB records av staged two high profile concerts that was sold out. Koko concert and D'kings men concert. This two events enjoyed massive sponsorship from multinationals, banks and top nigerian companies. The two concerts game him a combined income of over N250million from ticket sales alone and others from sponsorships. Mavin records till date is yet to organise any notable music concert.

Dbanj also has over 35 awards to his name which includes: BET Awards, Channel O Music Video Awards, Fizz Awards, Ghana Music Awards, The Headies, Kora Awards, MOBO Awards, MTV Africa Music Awards, MTV Europe Music Awards, Nigeria Entertainment Awards, Nigeria Music Video Awards, Sound City Music Video Awards, World Music Awards, 4Syte TV Music Video Awards and the recent All Africa Music Awards in 2014.



10. AGE and HUMILITY
Despite being older than DonJazzy, dbanj still respects him and created a high profile for him which made people to adore jazzy. The words "its don jazzy again" became a popular slogan during the Mohits era. It was all his idea to make Jazzy look like the Don.

Jazzy on the other hand isn't humble but very arrogant. He once ordered his body guards to beat up a guy in a nite club. He once had a grudge with ikechukwu which made them to part ways. Dbanj also had issues with ikechukwu but later settled it and accepted him back to his crew at DB records. DonJazzy disliked Dr Frabz out of envy just because frabz created the beat for the highly successful "WHY ME" that shot them to prominence. Jazzy never acknowledge publicly that it was Frabz beats. Due to this Dr Frabz left mohits too on a bad note. (Frabz, kswitch and myself attended the same university in Nigeria so these are confirmed facts).

Dbanj and Tuface are the most humble nigerian artistes you can ever meet. If you've been shunned by other artistes in public you will understand what I mean. Dbanj response to his fans is very impressive despite his A-list celebrity status.



CONCLUSION
Dbanj has a great sense of humour which makes him very likeable. He thinks globally but jazzy prefers to be a local champion. This was the reason for the problems of Mohits. Dbanj was thinking ahead and planning to expand the Mohits brand when they met Kanye west in the US but DonJazzy couldn't humble himself because kanye was also a producer and he knew he may be relegated to the background. No matter what our entertainment industry(whether music or movies) is doing today, its was all adopted from the west. Even the gadgets and equipments we use to produce music was manufactured by europeans and americans. So please tell me is there a crime that Dbanj was thinking big.

The latest tape released on "THE TRUTH" also exposed the envy that existed in Mohits from the outburst of Dr Sid stating that "his brand and star is too big, its overshadowing...". What a wicked world that the same people you call family can gang up against you just because of your success. Imagine if a kelly rowland envied beyonce, will their relationship still be intact today.
The truth is no one can be trusted except God. In conclusion, my advice to Dbanj is to "forgive others not because they deserve forgiveness but because you deserve peace".

Now to all bloggers that may copy this piece and paste on their blog; my advice to you is that "be original because imitation is your limitation and your originality is your greatest value" This is a copyright by my humble self so ask for permission before using it.

if D'banj is broke or rich, how is that any of your problem, are you going to lend him money if he is broke or are you going to borrow from him if he is not. he has always been in it alone so broke or not, its up to him and not you and also you dont have to write a novel to prove to us that he is not broke, we don't need his money neither interested in his wealthy status. all that matters to me is good music from him and i have not been getting that from him of late so advise on making good music and not defend him on being broke or not. if Don jazy has been that poor musically, do you think anyone will remember him today. if you go to school with D'banj's brother, did you also go to school with Tiwa Savage and other Mavin artists that you now know how they do and what contract they signed. please watch your beef. have not seen or heard where anyone has compared D'banj to Don jazzy, maybe no one aside from you is interested in who is richer. one last thing, don't attack people's family, it's demeaning.

Wow! I don't know if D'banj is broke or not but one thing I have come to admire him for is his calm approach to this whole thing. Even when Don Jazzy and his peeps tried making a fool of him.
Being quiet and restraining from reacting/responding to his critics makes him a bit larger than life. I respect the dude for this undecided
