Where's the source?

It's obvious Davido wouldn't fake a signing.
However, this post only shows a bunch of quotes written in "Nigerian English," with no official source. undecided

Isn't it time to change his name from "omo baba olowo" to "emi olowo"?

How am I hating? I clearly stated that Davido is no doubt signed and has no reason to say otherwise, if he wasn't.
However, when making a publication which quotes people and corporate "official statements," you must provide a source.

What does this Wikipedia link have to do with validating the statements in the original thread post? It only affirms that he is signed, and that's not in question, so I don't get your point.

For Nigerians living abroad or who have traveled outside this shows how much these Nigerian artists have done to improve our image.It is so uplifting to watch non Nigerians listen and dance to Nigerian music all over the world.In an era when the political class have been busy embezzling billions they created a new genre of music that transcends age, language, tribe and religion.It is our hope that now that there is a lot of foreign interest they pay a high legal attention to the contracts they sign.Good luck Davido!

Ok..."In Africa, Davido is a bonafide superstar....." Nonsense write-up, can't they give Nigeria some credit undecided

I have read the entire press release and can conclude that the voices of the cultural mediators are still very much around in Africa. They are better armed with vestiges of colonial education and write our story (their way). Even on the surface of things, Davido has invested so much in himself thereby positioned as Nigeria's finest at the moment.

U sure he isn't officially giving himself out to dis illuminati bastards?he shud beta go n read mj's story line o!
Re: Davido: Sony Music Entertainment Confirms Deal by Amother4life: 8:37pm On Jan 28, 2016
Huge mistake. Why does he think big recording artists setup their own labels in the states? Jay Z, P Diddy, Usher etc. This might look like a good deal but it's a poison pill for the industry.
Re: Davido: Sony Music Entertainment Confirms Deal by davidif:
Chei! I hope it's not a 360 deal o. Over here, some people say that signing with a major record label almost amounts to slavery.

For those of you who don't know, back in the day (I mean in yanki) recording companies made profit from the artists album sales while the artists made most of their money from touring and image rights/endorsements.

Now that people don't buy albums like they used to, recording companies decided to start taking a certain percentage of the artists touring money and even endorsements in some situations.

So, I truly hope this is not what davido signed. I also hope he didn't sign away his publishing rights as that could mean that he is possibly signing away a future part of his income.

Either way sha, I hope he has a really good lawyer who was by his side to read the contract.
