Coal's exit from the label...
It is with deep regret that we officially announce the
departure of recording artist Wande Ojosipe, popularly
known as Wande Coal, from Mavin Records due to
irreconcilable differences.
Over the past few months, Mavin Records has made a
concerted move to consolidate its position in the Nigerian
music industry. Mavin has pursued a renewed ethos to
raise its standards of quality and professionalism to a
world-class level. Wande's vision has not aligned with
ours and a few months ago all parties mutually agreed that
a separation would be the best course of action.
Legal parties on both sides have spent the past six months
trying to reach an amicable solution in terms of musical
property rights. However the decision by Wande Coal to
release 'Baby Face' purportedly as his own material is a
direct breach of intellectual property law and compelled
an immediate clarification on our part.
Both Mavin Records and Wande Coal have enjoyed a
remarkable run in the course of their working relationship. It
is unfortunate that conflicting priorities contributed to the
premature curtailment of a hitherto fruitful accord.
Mavin Records reaffirms its goal to constantly provide high
quality music to our fans and introduce new and exciting
talent into the industry.
We wish Wande Coal the best of luck in all his future
endeavours.
Signed
Management
Mavin Records Ltd
