BREAKING: Skales bows out of EME as contract expires

I just got this report from NET reporters..(read report below)

Nigerian rapper Skales has parted ways
with record label, Empire Mates
Entertainment (EME) following the
expiration of his contract a few weeks
ago.
The popular label which signed Skales in
2010 has decided not to extend their
initial three-year contract with the
rapper.
NET reached out to EME boss Banky W
who has confirmed the development.
‘Yes it’s true’, Banky told our reporter
over the phone.
Both parties have met and reached an
agreement, an inside source told NET
tonight.
We’re told EME decided not to renew its
deal with Skales because they feel it may
no longer be a profitable venture.
According to those familiar with the
current situation at the Lagos label, the
large part of that decision was made,
based on the fact that the direction of
Skales’ music has considerably changed
since he was signed.
‘EME signed Skales as a rapper back then
with Wizkid; the plan was to mould him
into one of the biggest HipHop acts in
Nigeria, you know something like a
younger M.I’, a source close to both
parties tells us.
It wasn’t long until Wizkid blew in 2011
and the EME trio of Banky, Wizzy and
Skales went on several tours – that’s
when Skales style of music began to
change, morphing him into a more Pop
act.
‘Skales wanted to change, them Banky
wouldn’t allow it but he was insistent. He
saw how Wizkid was getting love and so
he was pressured to do Pop music rather
than rap’.
In November 2011, Skales released his
first official single off the label titled
‘ Mukulu’, which saw him ditch his Hip-
Hop sound for Pop music.
‘It’s not like he was great at it but Skales
was so determined to do the kind of
music Wizzy does. Banky and co didn’t
want to stop him so they let him run with
it, in fact they supported him all the way’.
EME shot four different solo videos for
Skales – ‘ Mukulu’, ‘ Komole ’, ‘ My baby ’,
and ‘ Take of care of me ’.
‘They’ve spent millions on him and
haven’t gotten anything back.
Signing a
new deal with him won’t be smart of
them to do. I can’t blame them’.
But another source argues that EME have
nobody but themselves to blame for the
situation.
‘If they signed Skales as a
rapper why didn’t they insist that he keep
on that path?’.
NET investigations reveal that while
Skales has left the label, he is still quite
determined about his music career as he
plans to release his long awaited debut
‘All of the Above’.
The 21-year-old Edo
State-born, Kaduna State raised youngster
is currently working with M.et.al
Management , the same talent company
that discovered him and got him the EME
deal in 2010. M.et.al is strongly affiliated
with EME.
Skales recently released a new song ‘ Very
soon ’ where he details his issues with
EME;
‘…Even the click wey I dey, they
tolerate me, they say I too scatter, dem
need to co-ordinate me/dem sey dem no
like my style, money no dey enter to
make them smile, everyday controversy
just dey pile/I never make even though
I’ve been here for a while’, Skales raps.
The rapper has removed EME from his
official Twitter, Facebook and Instagram
pages. He recently tweeted about having
a ‘new hustle’, ‘new team’, ‘new life’ and
having a ‘fresh start’.
NET has also learnt that EME has planned
a ‘package’ for the rapper to make things
easy as he starts a new chapter in his
career. ‘They got him some money to run
his own team, that’s the best they could
do, they are still cool’.
All attempts to reach Skales proved
abortive as his manager Osagie
Osarenkhoe of M.et.al has not
responded to our calls or replied our text
messages. Skales has also refused to
respond to our text messages or pick up
our calls.
EME in February 2013 faced a similar
situation when a prized act at the
label Wizkid threatened to walk out of his
contract . He later reconciled with the
label, honouring his contract.
Skales isn’t the only one who’s parted
ways with his label in recent times; the
likes of Pop singer Wande Coal (formerly
with Mavin Records) and Jesse Jagz
(formerly with Chocolate City ) have in
the past few months left the labels too.
EME is now home to only label head and
R&B singer Banky W, Pop singers Wizkid,
Shaydee, disc jockey DJ Xclusive and
rising female artiste Niyola.

Having taken special notice of reports
of the Financial Reporting Council of
Nigeria and other investigating
bodies, which indicate clearly that
Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi’s
tenure has been characterized by
various acts of financial recklessness
and misconduct which are
inconsistent with the
administration’s vision of a Central
Bank propelled by the core values of
focused economic management,
prudence, transparency and financial
discipline;
Being also deeply concerned about
far-reaching irregularities under
Mallam Sanusi’s watch which have
distracted the Central Bank away
from the pursuit and achievement of
its statutory mandate; and
Being determined to urgently re-
position the Central Bank of Nigeria
for greater efficiency, respect for due
process and accountability, President
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has ordered
the immediate suspension of Mallam
Sanusi Lamido Sanusi from the Office
of Governor of the Central Bank of
Nigeria.
President Jonathan has further
ordered that Mallam Sanusi should
hand over to the most senior Deputy
Governor of the CBN, Dr Sarah Alade
who will serve as Acting Governor
until the conclusion of on-going
investigations into breaches of
enabling laws, due process and
mandate of the CBN.
The President expects that as Acting
Governor of the Central Bank, Dr.
Alade will focus on the core mandate
of the Bank and conduct its affairs
with greater professionalism,
prudence and propriety to restore
domestic and international
confidence in the country’s apex
bank.
The Federal Government of Nigeria
reassures all stakeholders in
Nigeria’s financial and monetary

taken in absolute good faith, in the
overall interest of the Nigerian

Two of the suspects, who were shielded from reporters by security qperatives in order not to derail investigations, confessed to have kidnapped the man in November 25, 2015.One of them (name withheld) told The Nation yesterday that when they collected the money and told the family to bring more, they did not know that the man would die in the custody.
He said, when he gave up the ghost,they carried the corpse to Nneyi village in Umueri community wherethey dumped him in the bush.
The late Pa James Iloenyosi was recognised by the Police and family members through the clothe and cap he wore at the time he was kidnapped.According to CP Usman Gwary, “we are not going to say much on the details of this operation because wehave not finished the investigation, in order not to jeopardise what we are doing.“We still have a lot of people to pick up concerning the kidnap of the man, but right now, we have arrested four persons to that effect.”

Want to know what's going on between Flavour and Dillish Mathews?

You know what they say, if you don't want sh...don't start it. So Flavour and Dillish Mathews blame yourselves for posting cozy photos of you two together on your respective instagram pages. It made an amebo like me to go digging and here's what I found out. From a very reliable source. *wink*

BBA 2013 winner Dillish appeared in Flavour's Ikworikwo video last year but that was strictly professional. Flavour even paid for her appearance. Then they became friends. Then she broke up with her boyfriend. Then she came for a movie in Port Harcourt. Then she came to Lagos to visit. Then she had dinner with Flavour. Then she spent the night in his house. OK, pause! I said his house, not his room..lol. Flavour has a big house in Chevron Estate, Lekki which he bought in November 2013 (Flavour pictured in front of his house above...the pic on the right is Flavour and Dillish in his compound) so she could have slept in any room. OK, let's continue with the story...:-)

So after spending time with Flavour, this was around three weeks ago, his PA went to drop her at the airport. But there's no relationship going on between them for now. Flavour is still dating Beverly Heels and all dem dem..lol. Will anything happen between them in the future? Don't know but if it does, y'all will hear about it. See the photos Flavour and Dillish shared on instagram after the cut...

15 Love Like A Movie Concert.
And guess what, he was a complete

Kelly who arrived in the company of

top, sunglass and a black-blue fur
coat.
Upon alighting from the plane, Darey
proceeded to give her a welcome to
Nigeria hug, after which he helped her
with her handbag, a gesture even
Kelly couldn't resist, as she returned
the kindness with an overwhelming
laughter.
Kelly is still one of Beyonce's besties.
Beyonce organised a birthday gig for

I'm sure Kelly will give Beyonce the

she returns to the US.
And who knows, Kelly might be able to
