Singer, Mayorkun reveals why he didn’t feature ex-boss, Davido in his new album
Popular Nigerian singer, Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel better known as Mayorkun, has revealed why he didn’t feature his former record label boss, Davido, in his new album.
Mayorkun got signed to Davido Music Worldwide (DMW) in 2016 and worked closely with Davido for years. However, rumour has it that he quietly exited the record label recently because his contract was not renewed.
His newly released album ‘Back in Office’ also confirms that he is no longer with DMW because it was not promoted by the label and their logo is not on the album cover.
The self-acclaimed ‘Mayor of Lagos’ held a listening party for his new album recently and had a chat with media personality, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu.
When asked why Davido was not featured in the album, Mayorkun said;
“Most people don’t know how creating an album works; sometimes, it’s a groups of songs you’ve had way back and just compile together.
“The songs that we have together I don’t feel like it’s for this album but for a later time.
“I and Davido have songs together and it is not a situation that I took out his song for my album.”
The Listening party was attended by former and current DMW signees as well as Davido.

“I was misinformed” — Actress Mercy Johnson’s accuser says as she apologizes.
Earlier today, Nollywood Actress and mother of four, Mercy Johnson called out her daughter’s school head teacher over an alleged victimization of her 8-year-old daughter. (See here)
The actress had taken to her Instagram page to air her displeasure over the unjust act against her kid. She revealed that the teacher deliberately bullies her daughter, Purity for the mere reason that she hates her (Mercy Johnson) as a public figure.
A lady who then claimed to be in the educational institution gave a different narrative of the whole confrontation. According to this lady, Mercy’s approach is far different from what she narrated in her post.
Read the lengthy post @thenancychidera had shared on her page,
“Mercy Johnson you embarrassed yourself and image today and action will definitely be taken against you. You would keep taking your children from one school to another because you can’t control your nonsense attitude.
Something happened at Chrisland VGC and I want everybody to judge the case. So many times, I’ve heard this narrative – Nigerian celebrities feeling like Demi-gods and superior to other human beings.
How would you as a mother-celebrity go to your daughter’s school and instigate your daughter to fight and cause havoc in her new school.
Your daughter was sent out of Greensprings because of your demental attitude and the fact that you didn’t train your children well and you brought that stupid character to Chrisland VGC.
Why would you go to your daughter’s school and fight a head teacher because she corrected your child.
So her child Purity twisted the hand of a fellow student and the case was reported to the head teacher. The woman called the both students to reconcile and asked them to apologize.
The child literally told the head teacher that she would never apologize because she wasn’t taught to do so. After much persuasion, she apologized and the mother dismissed the pupils.
Only for the mother to come to school this afternoon to cause havoc, to insult, humiliate the head teacher. All for what?
After her display, she called her husband who in turn came to the school with 3 hefty bodyguards to beat up the headteacher for supposedly disturbing his wife and child.
So as a man, you brought your soldier dogs to beat up a woman, aren’t you ashamed?” Continue Reading Here.
Now in a new development, the Lady who had claimed that Mercy’s story was far from the truth, has now apologized. @thenancychidera revealed that she was misinformed about the whole drama, noting that she based her judgement on what she heard without critically examining the issue.

She should give a public apology – Actress, Georgina Onuoha reacts as Tiwa Savage reportedly loses 4 endorsement deals over sxxtape scandal
Veteran actress, Georgina Onuoha has reacted to an alleged report that sensational singer, Tiwa Savage, has lost four endorsement deals over her sex tape saga.
It can be recalled that the singer’s sex tape surfaced online on Monday evening, October 18, days after she said she was being blackmailed on a radio show.
Shortly after the tape hit the internet, a PR expert, Issac Mayowa hinted that Tiwa Savage might lose her endorsement deals over the sextape scandal.
Well, in a new development, an online blogger has claimed that the ‘Somebody’s son’ hitmaker has lost four endorsement deals with Cadbury, Pampers, Glo. However, the information has not been confirmed.
Actress, Georgina Onuoha has now taken to her Instagram page to advise Tiwa Savage to issue a public apology because she is a global brand.
In the lengthy post she shared, Georgina wrote,
“Sad if this is true.
Personally as Georgina, I pray Tiwa pulls through this. She is immensely talented and gifted.
She has the world stage on her laps.
She did not commit a crime, she is the victim but damn my
colleagues did her a disservice with their “A Queen I stand” rhetoric. We all should learn to weigh issues critically before our support becomes an indictment of the person we are trying to support.
She took the initial step of going public about her being blackmailed. Which was proactive and smart of her. My ill-informed colleagues did her a disservice.
The narrative should have been, “Say No to Blackmailers who breached her privacy. Instead, their ignorance came off as celebratory of her mistakes.
They did Tiwa bad.
I’m still praying for her to get us a grammy soon.
She will rise from this.
.
.According to PR EXPERT Lauretta, Sometimes not all publicity is good publicity.
Kim Kardashian went on an apology tour on every TV and significant talk show in America and issued public apologies to save her brand 15 years ago.
.
Tiwa is no longer a Nigerian brand; she is a global brand.
I hope she pulls through this, learns her lessons, apologizes for this mistake.
If I were on her PR team, I would suggest a public apology, most of you will say it’s not needed, as her bla bla bla did not leak the tape. Still, if you understand PR, you will appreciate that an apology is necessary to her family-oriented fans, she apologies for letting such happen to even get to the media whilst also playing the victim because she is still the victim and then move on.Do you know that with all the popularity Kim K has that some brands will never use her as their ambassador?
You might say she doesn’t need it but trust me her team wishes those brands will contact her.

There is a reason why we should all be careful in this life.
