‘Kokomaster’ Dapo Oyebanjo popularly known as Dbanj, who
just released his album ‘King don come’, revealed that he signed Davido in 2014
with a Rolex wristwatch to his record label as a sign-on fee.
According to him, after he signed him, Davido’s dad came
begging him to release him to go to school, which he did.
D’Banj also added that he signed him on while he was still
young, but now Davido is doing so well for himself now that he could afford to
buy enough Rolex wristwatches.
Here is what D’Banj said;
“I remember in 2014 when I went back to Nigeria. Some young
guy who used to work for me brought an artist to me and said he wanted me to
sign him and I signed the artist. I remember we gave the artist a Rolex watch
as a signing-on fee.
“I signed the artist and I got a call later on that the
parents of the artist wanted to meet with me. So, I went and I saw the parents
and they said please I want my boy to go to school. I know you have signed him
but I really want him to go to school. So, I said okay, let him go to school
because that is what you want and then after that, he can come back.
The boy I am talking about is one of the biggest artistes
coming in from this new generation which is Davido”
