When you’re dealing with a scandal of epic proportions, rushing to speak is always a bad idea. Some issues require a long game mindset like a chess game

[Toyan @adetoyan]

As I always say, hire professionals. Not every situation needs a hammer. Sometimes you need precision tools.

Tonali for almost 100m!!! What are Spurs smoking?

Facebook and Instagram are down?

I just got an unsolicited scam message from this number [phone]

They shared a fake PVC registration link requesting my occupation, address, email, phone number etc.

This is how scammers and kidnappers harvest data @inecnigeria @PoliceNG @OfficialDSSNG

THE FIVE STAGES OF EVERY AFROBEATS CONTRACT FIGHT

Stage 1: Nobody Has Money

Artist is struggling.

Label is taking a risk.

Everyone is friends.

Everyone is family.

Everyone is excited.

The artist thinks:

“This person changed my life.”

The label thinks:

“I’m investing in the future.”

No problems yet.

Stage 2: The Label Invests

The label spends money on:

* studio sessions
* producers
* videos
* accommodation
* feeding
* transportation
* marketing
* PR
* radio
* influencer campaigns

The artist sees success.

The label sees expenses.

This is where perspectives begin to differ.

Stage 3: The Artist Blows Up

Now the artist becomes famous.

Streams increase.

Shows increase.

Brand deals arrive.

Fans arrive.

Money arrives.

Now a new thought enters the artist’s mind:

“Why am I giving these people so much money?”

This is where most problems begin.

Stage 4: Contract Review

The artist finally reads the contract properly.

They discover things like:

* ownership of masters
* revenue splits
* term length
* options
* exclusivity
* publishing clauses

Then they become angry.

Stage 5: War

Suddenly:

* songs disappear
* lawsuits appear
* interviews start
* fans take sides
* social media explodes

The relationship collapses.

It’s like MTN removed or stopped accumulating my data. I can’t explain how more than 200GB disappeared

Glad to see Ethan Nwaneri on the parade bus.

[Toyan @adetoyan]

Surprised that people don’t know when they cross the line into cyber bullying

[Toyan @adetoyan]

@kingbollei That being said, I have some time, I think I should look through your timeline and see how many community guidelines you have flouted. Selah!

[Toyan @adetoyan]

@kingbollei @aproko_doctor I’ve not insulted you, I’ve made a statement of fact. You accused someone falsely and despite contrary evidence being provided, you haven’t retracted your statement or apologized. I wonder if this is a pattern or the format you use to earn coins on Twitter, but it’s wrong

[Toyan @adetoyan]

Now you understand why teams can me at us with low blocks

[Slxt @afcslxt]

36 passes and Man City couldn’t get a touch and then Nwaneri did that. the disrespect was patient.
