[img]http://3.bp..com/-O4uT9jc6i_0/Vdgvc0BD1cI/AAAAAAACJk4/CMpl1IvFFH8/s1600/wiz-1.jpg[/img] Producer, OJB Jezreel has decided to set the records straight regarding who discovered Wizkid.In a recent interview,OJB said he hadn’t spoken about it before now because he is too old to be blowing his own trumpet at 50. The beat maker said that he went to Wizkid’s family house to convince his parents to allow him pursue his music career. “To set the records, I discovered Wizkid’s talent. We basically started his career and I remember when we had to push Wizkid around and take him for shows but nobody was ready to allow him to perform because they were not ‘feeling’ him at that point in time. When he had the chance and said he wanted to move on and try other things, we were behind him then too. If we did not discover him, he would not have been with us. I was the first person to go to his family house to tell them that it would be a nice idea if they allowed him to go into music. We have been there from day one but not everybody know this story, we don’t just make noise about it. It is not Banky W that discovered him, I did. I would soon be 50 years old and I think it would be funny if I start blowing my trumpet,” he said. OJB said that he has no regrets when it comes to Wizkid because he pushed his career as far as he could. “There are some artistes that if you spend millions of naira on them, they would not be impactful until they cross borders. Take Harrysongs for example, millions was spent on him but nothing happened till he crossed over to Five Star Entertainment. There is no how Harrysongs would say that Questionmark record label was not a blessing to his life. Sometimes, these things happen like that and I think it is destiny,” he said. http://www.metroparrot.net/2015/08/i-discovered-wizkid-not-banky-w-ojb.html cc: lalasticlala ishilove 13 Likes 2 Shares |

Hasn't he said something like this before? I think he mentioned helping D'banj's career too. Sometimes I wonder how these people feel when they say things like these ![]() It's somewhat weird. You keep mentioning some successful people's names and say you're the brain or person behind their success and they expect what exactly? The person being talked about and the people listening or reading should say "Yeah Yeah, baba agba. Tuale! You don try." Point is no one gives a fvck whom you helped. If you were unable to maintain your own shining star when it was shining, it's nobody's fault. Don't start claiming lord when you're fast becoming irrelevant in the the same business that brought you to limelight. Hasn't Don Jazzy done better than OJB when it comes to nurturing and bringing to light raw talents? Who dey make noise pass? 33 Likes 1 Share |
