Brymo Cries Out To Public For Help With Label

Former Chocolate City Music Label artist, Brymo is crying out to the public for help with his situation at the label. I remember when The LOX (Jadakis, Sheek Louch, & Styles P) did something similar back in the early 00s. They had signed a very bad contract with Puffy while they were teenagers, and needed desperately to get out of it. In situations like that, you can't go to court cos paper work from the Record Label would win the case in their favour. The only way out is to seek sympathy from the public, and let them fight the course with you.


Read Brymo's words concerning the situation below-

‘I’m actually having problems with Chocolate City and it’s contractual problems. The reason why I said I dumped the contract was because of breaches‘, Brymo told reporters in Lagos.

The singer also stated that he cannot ‘be saved’ by the Nigerian court if he were to legally pursue the matter hence his cry to the public. ‘It came important to call this gathering, I’m a Nigerian, I know the court cannot save me‘. (hiphopworldmagazine.com)

The thing with most artists that get into situations like this is that they were probably hungry when the label signed them, and were okay with everything in the contract that was presented to them. But, after enjoying a level of success, they would feel they deserve more than that. Let's say an artists signs a 4 year deal, where he would be making 40% royalties off his music, and 50% off show/concert money, in exchange for maybe N5,000,0000 advance money and some other pecks. After 2-3 years of operating under the contractual agreements, the artist starts to feel cheated, cos now he is bigger, and he is commanding like a million naira a show, and feels depressed every-time he has to give 500k back to the label, even though he does all the work. But a deal is a deal.
