Nigerian Music Mogul Don Jazzy Rekindles Friendship with Wizkid, Fans React

Published

on

Renowned music executive Michael Collins Ajere, popularly known as Don Jazzy, has rekindled his friendship with Afrobeat sensation Wizkid, a year after their highly publicized rift.

On Tuesday, the Mavins founder took to his Instagram page to share a heartwarming photo of himself and Wizkid seated together, accompanied by an elephant and eagle emoji. This gesture has sparked widespread excitement among fans.

The reconciliation comes after a tumultuous period between the two, which began when Wizkid seemingly disparaged Don Jazzy’s influence in the music industry. The situation escalated when Wizkid’s fans unearthed a 2020 tweet where Don Jazzy referred to himself as an influencer, further straining their relationship.

However, thanks to the intervention of Ayra Starr, whose album “The Year I Turned 21” played a pivotal role in their reconciliation, the two music industry heavyweights have put their differences aside. Wizkid publicly praised Ayra Starr’s album, prompting Don Jazzy to express his gratitude, which ultimately led to a renewed sense of respect and admiration between them.

As expected, Don Jazzy’s fans have reacted enthusiastically to the photo, celebrating the renewed friendship between the two music industry giants.

Popular Nigerian music video director, TG Omori has shared some insights into his journey as a cinematographer.

He revealed that he only started making profits from shooting music videos in 2023 despite being one of the most sought-after directors in the country years before then.

He further revealed that he was in a bad production debt for five years and was only able to pay it off through money he made from his brand.

The music video director disclosed this during an interactive session with fans on X on Tuesday.

A fan asked, “How do you know how much the entire production would cost and still properly infuse your own profit so as not to undercharge or overcharge?”

He replied, “I only started making profits in 2023. Every time I’m losing money from pick up shoots or something! Budget is never enough, in fact I was in bad production debt for 5years. Just had to live with it, I was paying up and taking more to cover up. I was only able to pay it off through money my brand and personality was fetching me. It’s a though life for creatives. Hug a creative beside you today.”

Ekwutosblog recalls that in 2023, Davido revealed in an interview with Beats FM Lagos that he paid TG Omori a whooping N100 million to shoot the video of his hit song, ‘Jowo.’

Omori later confirmed the payment in a social media post.

Angela Okorie clearly thought she found Regina’s weak spot. But what she doesn’t realize is that Regina is now at home with that line. Years of social media noise have toughened her skin. That card might have worked on a less grounded woman, but not Regina. Instead of hitting a nerve, Angela only exposed her own lack of strategy.

Angela Okorie clearly thought she found Regina’s weak spot. But what she doesn’t realize is that Regina is now at home with that line. Years of social media noise have toughened her skin. That card might have worked on a less grounded woman, but not Regina. Instead of hitting a nerve, Angela only exposed her own lack of strategy.

Let’s be honest – if it was really about “respect” or “the industry,” that’s where the conversation should’ve stayed. But the moment she started dragging Ned Nwoko into the mix, it became obvious: this wasn’t about principle. It was about ego. That kind of behavior doesn’t elevate the conversation. It drags it into the mud.

It’s one thing to call someone out. It’s another thing entirely to veer off and start attacking their family or people who aren’t involved. That’s not strength, it’s bitterness shouting through a megaphone.

If you’ve ever dealt with someone who can’t argue without going low, you know how exhausting it is. They don’t seek understanding. They seek domination – even if it means reaching into places that were never part of the issue. And in the end, they only make a spectacle of themselves.

Angela obviously knows Regina has what many only dream of. But she seems to think she (Angela) still holds something that can rattle the “little girl” whenever there is a clash. The truth? That ‘something’ moved a long time ago. And in this whole drama, it’s clear who’s doing all the shouting.

Let’s normalize ending arguments at the point they stop being constructive. You can disagree. You can confront. But do it without involving someone’s family or dragging up their past. Because when that happens, the issue stops being about them – and becomes all about you.
