1.DJ Cuppy and Zlatan

You may recall that, some time ago, Cuppy took to her social media page to reiterate why Zlatan blocked her both on WhatsApp and Instagram, well, as time went on, we realized through Isreal, Davido’s logistics manager that Cuppy had allegedly cheated Zlatan, according to Isreal, Zlatan featured on Gelato for free, but Cuppy refused to give him a share of the returns after Gelato became a hit.

2. Wizkid and Saeon

According to Saeon, she paid N1.5 million to Wizkid for a feature and also to promote thier project, ‘Boogie down’, but Wizkid did not promote it making it a failed project, she said; “Folks be like I never charge artistes for features, but I’m 1.5m short and I couldn’t even get a retweet, anyway it’s turn by turn…”, but in an interview with DJ Abrantee on Capital XTRA, Wizkid claimed he does not charge any artist he loves for feature, but he actually charges N1O million for collaboration. Be that as it may, who is the culprit here?
