Remembering the late rapper, Illbliss shared a picture of the ‘Pon Pon Pon’ crooner said his “legacy will never end”.

CorrectNG recalls that last year, Trod, the brother of Dagrin revealed that he does not receive any royalties for any of his late brother’s songs.
The up-and-coming singer stated this on Twitter in a bid to refute claims of “siphoning” royalties of his Dagrin’s music.
There had been accusations in some quarters that Trod was getting paid and enjoying the money secretly while his family was suffering. The allegation became more intense after recent video of their mother crying out to Nigerians for help went viral.
In reaction, Trod said he knew nothing about the royalties and he challenged whoever has been receiving it since 2010 to make themselves known.
He tweeted; “I dunno shiit about Grins Royalties ..The person who has been getting paid for 13 years should come out. DMCE whatever?!”
