Weeks after the release of Sebee remix, featuring two of
Nigeria’s pop singers, there are indications that Olamide and Oritsefemi are
currently engaged in silent feud following a collaboration with fast-rising
Afro-pop singer, Sossi.
Sossi who is signed to Bugatti records label featured
Oritsefemi and Olamide in the remix of his popular single, “Sebee”, a track
that has made him toast of many.
It was learnt during the week that problem started weeks after
Sossi dropped the remix. Sossi and his management were said to have paid
Olamide N1.5 million for him to feature in the remix while Oritsefemi was
allegedly paid N500,000.
This disparity in the fee, according to our source, have
angered Oritsefemi when he got to know about it. “He’s believed to be angry
with Sossi and his management over their decision to pay him less fee as
against Olamide, who he perceived to be his junior in the music industry,” said
a source who is close to the record label.
Confirming the development, a source close to Oritsefemi
said that the singer was not happy when he learnt that Olamide was paid more
money than him, as he decided to express dissatisfaction over the matter.
Olamide-
WG also
gathered that there had been an unconfirmed animosity between Olamide and
Oritsefemi over the latter’s decision not to feature the former in his
yet-to-be released album.
Meanwhile, reacting to the development, a source reasoned
that there was no need to create unnecessary feud between the two superstars,
adding that “the artistes got what they asked for, and the label paid them what
it felt they truly deserved.”
Efforts to contact Olamide on the phone proved abortive
as his manager, Alex’s cell phone was switched off permanently.
Oritsefemi who was recently discharged from the hospital
would not want to be dragged into the matter. But when contacted, Sossi
Manager, Michael, said he was not aware of the development, promising, however,
to look into the matter.
