dadaic: Pride goes before a fall..Now because you have beef, you tell us all those things you did with Don J, were formalities, so what...You are trying to win some fans that has left you, saying you bought cars for so many people, you claim to be the boss, act like one, and that is why we love billionaires, they don't go about blabbing..You are still a millionaire, and so if it hurts you that you have bought such, take it back and don't let the world know what little thing you have done for your 'brothers', why call them brothers anyway when you claim you own it all. This is total bullshit to me.

Pain: Can someone please close this chapter on D'Banj?
While I can say I have a soft spot for him going by our days as "Boys" back in E-Coy (NMS),D'banj has simply not lived up to the grown up man in I thought he would be..That's in terms of composure, diction and communication skills. His late Brother Femi was a complete package of humility, integrity and intellect.I'm really in doubt if K-West would not be disappointed in the long run. Will he be able to live up to the expectations of the US Market in terms of creativity and consistency? Only time will tell..

deenee: It pains my heart that the duo of D'banj and Don Jazzy are no longer a team. I however don't ascribe to the numerous interviews filled with varying contradictions that D'banj has granted since their infamous split. He should concentrate on his new found fame and make the best of it while it lasts. I also don't buy this idea of him saying that 'he bought this and bought that'! If the recent interview is anything to go by, Mohits is jointly owned so is he saying that other artistes on the label were just parasites living of his largese? My respect for Don Jazzy has grown significantly because he has displayed some level of maturity and I hope this will be a steep learning curve for other Nigerian artistes that wish to sign on to an international label. There are many versions to the split. One school of thought connotes that the rift was caused by differences on how to share the $3 million sign on fee,another states that it was as a result of D'banj's high handedness which reached a boiling point with the Kanye West and total disregard for other label mates speaking of which his feud with Ikechukwu comes to mind. For those who are saying that D'banj will conquer the world, bear in mind that the entertainment industry there is much more sophisticated that what obtains in Nigeria. It is only in Nigeria that you will put together a bunch of incoherent syllables,call it an album,put it in the market and make money. Abroad you will be subject to the opinion of music critics that will give their take on everything from lyrics to album cover. More so who buys albums these days when you can download for free on some sites and a whole album on iTunes cost less than a dollar in some cases! So I doubt if he will make money from albums sales as predicted. Most international acts make money from shows and tours. chris brown, lady gaga, jay z and kanye's watch the throne tour are good examples to cite in this regard. I doubt if D'banj can pack a stadium full of fans overseas unless he is a supporting act for another artiste. Why leave where you are celebrated to where you will be accommodated? No doubt, the deal with GOOD music is a welcome development but throwing away the 'dirty water and the baby away at the same time raises some vital questions about loyalty. I wish the both of them the very best in their future endeavours!

baby-boy:
The illness killing Africans - Someone dreamnt big seems like a crime to some Nigerians. Dbanj wants to take a risk and the whole of the bitter reading Nigerians list all the ways he is going to fail, yet only a handful has said go for it. Thomas Edison failed over 2000 times when making the light bulb. Michael Jordan said I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying. whether Dbanj is going to be a lapdog for Kanye West, is no one's business, Kanye did kiss up to Jay Z for a while thats life. the main problem here is that Don Jazzy is limited in his thinking and his vision, whether Dbanj sells no downloads or not atleast he he tried and has no regrets.

rhymz: this you be fool. No serious minded person should put a fool like you in the position of power else you will fritter it away in an unbriddled excitement. If I were in Don Jazzy's shoes I will do exactly thesame thing. There is a big difference between reckless ego ride and a well thought thought out plan to achieve something. Quote thomas edison and micheal Jordan is nice on paper, trust me they did not take uninsured risk, when they failed they had backups to cushion such.
D banj obviously is just excited and not thinking straight. The article is full of lies, twisted facts and half-truth, he may have been the biggest source of revenue to Mo'hit but to posit like others do not bring in money is very dishonest. To even claim to have bought cars for everyone with monies prolly from Mo'hits account as if he used his personal money to do so is even more dishonest and desperate at best. We are not kids to believe such bullshit and insinuations. Imagin him hitting below the belt and trying to imply that Don Jazzy prolly took over wande's twitter account and made comments to make him D banj look bad. He forgets that his obsession with himself is the reason everyone else in the label is not supporting him. Where is the sense in losing what you already have just because you want to get another one; a bird at hand is worth two in the bush. If it aint broke dont fix it. The whole lets go global crap is all about himself and nothing more. He is not the only one that has been signed by a major label from Naija, which Big dreams is he talking of? Michael Jackson broke into world market not by jumping ship but through the quality of his work which obviously he does not have. Which one is sef, a bizman that wants to make money or an artists that wants to make money cos i know grab. Abeg make hear word with all that big dream crap....homie is excited and blinded by his oversized ego.

THE STORIES THAT "I BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR THAT , I BOUGHT MYSELF AN ASTON MARTIN BLA BLA. IT IS SICKENING !!

airmark: So D Banj is older than Don Jazzy? Unbelievable!!!
