After several speculations, Kiss
Daniel has finally left his record label G-Worldwide Entertainment after
three years with them.
The popular singer says he’s
moving on to set up his own label where he’ll continue to function as an
artiste and now as a CEO.
“All is set for the take-off of “FLY
BOY I.N.C” which is my label. This implies that all activities regarding Kiss
Daniel will be carried out under this new arrangement” says Kiss Daniel.
“This is an important move for me
and I sincerely want to thank the fans who have always been there for me and
also the media for their constant support” he further says.
The singer signed to G-Worldwide
Entertainment in 2013 and went on to release hit singles such as ‘Woju’, ‘Laye’,
‘Good Time’, and ‘Mama’. His debut album 'New Era' released in 2016 was one of
the best albums of the year.
The success of the album led to
Kiss Daniel winning three awards at the 2016 Headies, 'Hip Hop World
Revelation', 'Best R&B/Pop album' and 'Album of the Year'.
Kiss Daniel’s relationship with
his label G-Worldwide Entertainment led by Festus Ehimarepopularly known
as Emperor Geezy raised a few eyebrows.
Many people believed that the
no-collaboration policy was hurting Kiss Daniel. His debut album featured no
guest act outside his label. Only Sugar Boy was on the album. The
same policy applied to Sugar Boy who only featured Kiss Daniel on his album.
There have also been whispers of
the label exerting too much control on Kiss Daniel thereby stifling his growth
and influence in the music scene. Unconfirmed reports of financial
mismanagement in the label also came up in 2015.
Kiss Daniel, however, says all is
well with G-Worldwide and that he’s grateful to the label for giving him a
platform to showcase his talents to the world.
According to him, now was the
right time for him to leave G-Worldwide Entertainment after the label had
helped him establish himself in the music scene.
“I'll always appreciate the role
G- Worldwide has played so far but it's time to take this to a whole new level”
states the hit singer.
“Expect nothing short of the
quality sound you know Kiss Daniel for. This move will only make things better
as I look forward to greater years ahead” he says.
Reaching out to G-Worldwide
Entertainment for a comment, Louiza Williams who was Kiss Daniel’s manager brought in by
the label says “sorry we can't talk about that right now” on his departure.
