Shasha Damilola Alesh, the Nigerian singer popularly known as Dice Ailes, has called out Sony Music for allegedly frustrating the circulation of his music.
The ‘Otedola’ hit-maker explained that he signed a deal with Sony Music but decided to terminate the contract because progress of his career was stagnated.
Dice Ailes, however, said that since he left the international label, some terms of the music deal have been preventing him from releasing new songs.
He said; “I have been in business with Sony Music for years and sometime last year, we mutually agreed to terminate the contract because progress was stagnated and also we didn’t get the kind of investments we were expecting.
“Unfortunately, we still have some restrictions from that deal that are affecting the flow of things, our marking processes, and investments for my company. I was just really tired.
“The fans have been clamoring for new music from me for so long. And 2024 is just so important to me, for the fans to get the best of me. So out of frustration, I had to go on social media to call out Sony Music.”
