Wande Coal Quits Don Jazzy’s Mavin Record Label


Nigeria has been buzzing as rumors of Wande Coal quiting Mavin Records, where did all this rumors come from? It’s been revealed that Wande Coal after several years of staying loyal to his bosses, Don Jazzy and Dbanj, he has allegedly finally parted ways with Mavin Records owned by Don Jazzy to form his own Record Label known as Black Diamond Entertainment.During the Mohit era which saw Dbanj and Don Jazzy going ways to form their own record label, Wande Coal took his side with the super producer, Don Jazzy and released a number of hits under the Mavin Records blueprint
Well today’s strongest indication is that Wande Coal released his latest single, Kilaju, under his own imprint Black Diamond Entertainment and no mention of Mavin records anywhere. Now this might not be such a big deal, but there were already rumors late last year saying that Wande Coal had left Mavin Records.
It was so serious that there was an official press statement released on Mavin Records website stating that ‘Wande Coal is going nowhere‘ back in November  7th, 2012
So lately we have this new single and loads of rumors going around including some indicating that Wande Coal was actually never signed to Mavin Records, and therefore not legally tied to the label. It will not be the first time that has happened as the Eva and Trybe Records saga had a similar issue.
As of now, there hasn’t been any statement from the Mavin Records camp or from Wande Coal’s camp clearly stating what the deal is, but if we can safely assume that something will be said officially pretty soon.
