stars, who have both established new labels and made new
friends but with contrasting fortunes, have been left
wondering if a reunion is ever possible between the self-
styled Kokomaster and producer, Don Jazzy.
We can tell you there is some good news regarding that
as a soft re-union is in the offing.
D’banj, who is currently in Los Angeles, spoke with Beat
FM presenters, Olisa Adibua and Maria Okan via
telephone today, confirmed that Don Jazzy is producing
some songs for him.
According to D’banj: ‘Ten years ago, October 4, 2004 to
be precise, I got on stage to perform for the first time
and now ten years later D’banj has become a brand. Don
Jazzy worked with me from the beginning and I can tell
you for sure that my 10 anniversary album will drop soon
and there are many producers on it, including Don Jazzy.’
It would be recalled that the two, born as Dapo Daniel
Oyebanjo and Michael Collins Ajereh, were responsible
for the establishment of Mo’Hits Records, one of
Nigeria’s most active labels this decade, founded in 2004
with D’banj as its first recording artist and Don Jazzy as
CEO/President with other artists including Wande Coal,
Dr SID, D’Prince and K-Switch.
Growing in spread and strength, Mo’ Hits conquered the
Nigerian music scene in no time, with several awards,
performance deals and endorsements to show for the
achievements until April 2012 when it all ended in a
bitter feud between two of the most relevant figures in
the Nigerian entertainment industry.
