Tunesbid Limited Never Paid Ayo Maff His Advance – Manager

Ayo Maff’s manager, Ayotunde Oyefeso, has come out to accuse his record label, Tunesbid Limited, of failing to fulfil its financial obligations to the artiste. He recently revealed that the singer left the label because it could not hold up its end of the bargain.

According to him, Ayo Maff was meant to receive an advance sum of N100M after he was signed to the label, but despite the singer and his team asking Tunesbid to pay N25M quarterly, the music company still failed to make any payment at all.

He stated that their agreement allowed Ayo Maff to be free to walk away from the contract if Tunesbid Limited was unable to fulfil its responsibilities as a record label.

His words, “We gave the label a two-week notice of our intention to walk away, as stipulated in the contract, and if they wanted to rectify the situation, they could have done that within that time.

According to the contract, Ayo was supposed to get an advance sum of N100m, but because we didn’t want to collect the money at once, we asked the company to pay N25m quarterly. But they never paid a dime—except one time that the CEO of the label gave him N100 for his ‘sacrifices’.

Imagine an artiste who had such wave-making songs, yet he did not have an apartment, but was squatting with friends. The label collects 100 per cent of the royalties and concert fees coming in. So, what is the artiste supposed to live on?”

WOW.
