After series of pleas and thousands of request from fans across the globe, Koko Master, D’banj has disclosed that him and his estranged business partner and former producer, Don Jazzy, have made music together. Ever since the duos took different paths in 2011, fans and colleagues in the music industry have been pleading with them to talk up their differences and make more hit songs together.
The Koko Master made this known at a press briefing in Silverbird Cinemas in Ikeja City Mall where he was joined by press for a private viewing of his EP for the first time.
“I and Don Jazzy have worked together. The songs will soon be ready” he said. The new single will be their first collaboration since the breakup of Mo’Hits Records in 2011.
The “Confidential” crooner also disclosed more on his endorsement deal and partnership with the electronic giants and both parties unveiled the DKM Slot Machines that will be available nationwide in all Slot outlets from 2016.
D’banj said: “When I signed with Slot, a lot of people didn’t understand why. It was more for me as a partnership and we are coming out with something in 2016 which is the DKM media stand.”
“Why I said this is because in October 2014, I got my Apple deal (Beats by Dre) and when I was about to bring the merchandise into the country, the first question Jimmy asked me is ‘Do you guys have this Beats by Dre in Nigeria’? I said ‘Yes but I don’t know if you guys have distribution directly in Nigeria and we have such a big market’.
That’s when it struck me and I said if you can design one for me and I can go and look for my own distribution, I’ll be able to bring my own line into the country. So that’s where the idea came from.”
“I want people who say Alaba is the only key to distribution, to see that beyond Alaba that we have another form of distribution right in our front because if you walk into any media store abroad, they sell CDs and DVDs.”
