Nigerian musician Michael Adebayo Olayinka, better known by his stage name Ruger, thanked Jonzing World, his previous record label, for the exposure it gave him, but he declined to extend his contract since they didn’t do a good enough job of promoting his brand.

He said that D’Prince, the head of his old record company, had abandoned him and was using the money from his music to find other artists.
Ruger vented on X on Thursday, saying he had more to say but was afraid of getting stabbed if he revealed more information about the record company.
He wrote, “As much as I’m very appreciative of the fact that Jonzing world introduced me to the world, I just couldn’t continue with them because they got too comfortable with the money they were making from me and couldn’t push me further as I wanted to be pushed. Was supposed to renegotiate the contract but I couldn’t imagine 5 years more without action.
“Dey use my money Dey fund new artist, leaving me in the dark, not being transparent. I just laugh. How e be now?
“Many things to to talk but dem fit go wait for me for ikoyi link bridge stab me wotowoto.”
Remember that on February 6, 2024, Ruger departed Jonzing World when his contract expired.
He expressed his gratitude to D’Prince and Jonzing World in an Instagram post, but he also stated it was time for him to place a wager on himself.
