He recalls searching Google for information on how to join Starboy Entertainment and finding a number.
When he called the number, he said he was requested to pay N10,000 for the registration form, which he paid but was blocked afterward.
The ‘Cana’ hitmaker said this in a recent interview with Wazobia FM in Lagos.
He warned aspiring artists not to sign up with any record label online.
Vibez said, “I remember when I was 13 years old, I wanted to sign to Starboy, I went to Google and typed, ‘How to register to Starboy record label.’ I saw one number and I called the number, the guy who picked it said I should pay for form N10,000.
“That was how I sold my phone and paid the guy N10,000 but after the payment he blocked me. He told me that he was Wizkid’s recruitment officer. I said I would come for the screening, I would perform and Wizkid would judge my performance. So I fell for it.”
