An official statement from Mavin
Records regarding Wande 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
