Obesere, promoter battle over new video

Sensational and highly controversial Fuji musician, Alhaji Qudus Abass Akande famously known as Obesere is in the news again. This time, the Ibadan, Oyo State born musician is being battled by his promoter, Alhaji Taofeek Bello Abefe, the CEO of Solid Worth Entertainment. According to findings, Taofeek feels betrayed by Obesere whom he accused of leaking the video of his new song, Ebelesua on Youtube as against their agreement.

 

According to sources,  it was alleged that there was an agreement between the duo which was for the promoter to release the musical video in contention, Ebelesua along with other videos in the video album. It’s on this alleged breach of agreement that the promoter is now threatening to sue the artiste.

Meanwhile, efforts to reach the promoter proved abortive as he was said to be outside the country at the time of filling this report. However, when contacted, Obesere who said  he’s busy working on his forthcoming hip hop album denied having anything to do with the leak. “I know nothing about it and I can’t explain how it happened,” he insisted.

However, following the leak on April 20, 2016, the video has been enjoying massive air play.   Shot by Dr. Bee, the video is the visuals for Obesere’s recent single, Ebelesua, which featured hip hop ‘Rap Lord’, Olamide with cameo appearances by comic actor, Afeez Oyetoro popularly known as Saka, Jaywon and DJ Tee.
