We Are Terminating JoshBeatz Contract Because Of Davido’s Unruly Behaviour – Record Label

This might not be the best time for the people at Born
Winners Empire (BWE), as their in-house producer, JoshBeatz has been ‘manipulated’
to join Davido’s HKN gang. Well, it’s a long read, and they are claiming it’s
all Davido and HKN’s fault and they are ready to kick JoshBeatz out, because they
will not be caught dead in an argument with the HNK gang. Find their press
statement below.

Our attention has been drawn to the false and  persistent claim by members of HKN Music that
young music producer – Joshua Boafo 
a.k.a JOSHBeatz, is signed to HKN.

Contrary to this, We wish to clarify that ‘JoshBeatz’ is
officially signed on to Born Winners Empire (BWE) as in-house producer. All
contractual obligations on the part of Born Winners Empire have been fulfilled
till date. JoshBeatz is expected to produce a Mixtape under BWE. At the time of
this incidence he was in d studio working on a new single for QUEST and also
our newest signed artist – BAZINO.

Be it also known that as at this moment JoshBeatz is still
living in BWE premises in Lekki.

The first news of this mischief broke on twitter on 21st
Nov, when Davido via his @iamdavido handle tweeted “Welcome @joshbeatz to
the family!!!! Hkn gang!! NEWEST MEMBER!!!! Congrats!!”

This came as an embarrassment and sad surprise to us because
Davido is well aware that JoshBeatz is on a valid contract with BWE,  he and his crew have visited our Lekki office
/ studios a few times when JoshBeatz recorded him on a track for the JoshBeatz
mixtape.

We have utmost respect for Davido and HKN, and we contacted
them to verify the situation, but they said it was just a random casual tweet
by Davido and they have no interest in signing the young producer. Yet we
continued to observe a manipulative and deceitful under-the table approach to
woo our artist/producer.

HKN further went ahead last week to release recorded
materials produced by JoshBeatz  whom
they tagged ‘HKN newly signed producer”.

Music business is Serious business, and there are rules to
the trade. We must put a stop to this hell-destined ‘Hustle and Blow’ mentality
and observe mutual respect as music business professionals.

In an industry that is constantly faced with flagrant
disregard and abuse of contractual commitment, it is disappointing that even
well established record labels will now manipulate and conspire with Artistes
to breach contracts. Its a shame indeed.

In view of the above, the management of BWE finds
JoshBeatz’s disloyalty and embarrassment totally unacceptable,  and has opted to Terminate his
(JoshBeatz)  contract forthwith. We are
not asking for any damages, and we do not wish to be drawn into controversies
with anyone.

Thank you..       

Signed,

For: Born Winners Empire (BWE).
