Peter of the Psquare, Mr P gave his two cents on the matter in a tweet where he said "My dear C Morgan, the decision I made 3yrs ago was never about the firm,money or power! It was for my FREEDOM!💪🏾
Sad you rejected the contract I gave u. Just because they made you see me like the bad egg. I pray you understand that God has a purpose for everything. Never give up."
Think about it when artist are successful nobody credits the label, or Managers for money or time spent pushing the artist it's the artist, But let an artist be relevant & go down its the label. The label is greedy the label took all my royalties they left me for dead....
I'm not saying some labels can take artist for a ride and give out horrible contracts. Everyone should remember these artist signed contracts willingly, but some times its the artist themselves that bring their own downfall, no one else!."
Davido's elder brother and Chairman of HKN music group also reacted to Cynthia's story, giving his own opinion on the matter in a series of tweets. His read, "Fans be so quick to blame labels or managers for ruining artist careers but when the artist make it, its by their own doing.....doesn't add up!!!!
