Artiste Accuses Kizz Daniel Of N15m Fraud
Fresh trouble may be looming for Nigerian music star, Kizz Daniel as Demmieo Vee, one of the Flyboy Inc Records label has accused him of N15m fraud. Demmie Vee made the revelation after luckily escaping public assault last Friday evening when Kizz Daniel invaded his Lekki apartment with men of the Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) to probably deal with him for requesting the refund of his money.
“With all due respect, you are a traitor, can’t believe you have the guts to bring police to me because I asked a refund of my money, you tricked us and collected N15 million to boost your own shaking career. I wasn’t a struggling artiste when you approached my boss for help which resulted into a recording deal/contract and I remember you promised heaven and earth that day, Dammie Vee allege.d
Speaking further, he also alleged that Kizz Daniel International edited his voice of two of his songs to make him sound like crappy singer. “Tiff was doing well and was already a big song when you came beg me to join Flyboy Inc, not knowing your real intentions. You edited my voice on two different songs, ‘Somebody Dey’ and ‘You Go Wait’ to make my voice sound awful and I still kept quiet and never said a word. I have the real versions of these two songs. You are too fake that the likes of Barry Jhan Phil Keyz, DJ Zino, Slizzy, Express and the likes can’t cope with you in the space of three months.
Time will surely tell. I know one day, the world will know the truth of it all. Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap now, but the seeds that you plant. Things may look rosy now, but karma is a tricky thing”, he said.
