Wizkid has finally signs to Sony Music Entertainment and RCA Records on
Tuesday, 13 September 2016.
It is a deal worth a ‘mindblowing’ amount, bigger than any African has
ever signed with the music giants.
The pop star has earlier been reported to have signed a global deal,
which according to information reaching Pulse, is the biggest ever deal
signed by an African. The deal dwarfs that of Davido with Sony Music.
“There’s something big coming up for Wizkid, and it happened while he
was in America. The deal will be the biggest ever signed by an African,
and signifies progress for the music business on the continent,” the
source says.
The source also confirms that plans are in motion to announce this deal
spectacularly, with many outlets reporting that Sony Music is involved.
The singer who runs his own label imprint Star Boy has been making
steady waves with his numerous collaborations with international
artistes such as Drake, Sean Paul, Swiss Beatz, Chris Brown and more.
There are also industry rumours that Universal Music has been working on
a Wizkid mega deal, and just might have their man now. -
Wizkid's good news is comming days after Davido criticize Sony music for not allowing him to drop any music to his fans
Signing
Sony Music recording deal maybe Davido biggest music, as the label
allegedly holding on to his music with a released date yet. Davido still
hasn’t released one single song in the entire 2016 which is
proving his music deal with Sony is a wrong move – at least for now.
The
singer had gave African music hope when he penned a deal – which he
said was worth $1million after months of music barrenness. Now fast
forward September the singer can’t catch a breathe.
Davido claims it isn’t his fault that he won’t be releasing an EP (Son of Mercy) he promised fans this month in a Snapchat rant earlier. The singer has had to depend on collaborations to stay relevant in the music game. He will also need his artistes Dremo and Mayorkun to continue to do well for him to remain on everyone’s lips as the music game is pretty forgetful.
After winning African Artiste of The Year in 2014 and 2015 at the MAMAs, it is fair to say Davido won’t walk away with anything at the forthcoming awards.
