Reekado Banks has reacted to reports that all Mavin artists are struggling to get performance slots at highly-rated shows this year.
He
told Sunday Scoop that people could certainly say whatever they like as they
didn’t have access to his bank account.
He
stated, “Every artiste should know how to quantify their success. This year has
not ended, but I have made more money than I did last year or the previous
year. It is just the perception of some people who think this year has not been
good for Reekado. I’ve made more than double of what I made last year. So, if
you think last year was good for Reekado, I can confidently tell you that this
year is far better.”
“I
am sure Tiwa Savage would not say that this year hasn’t been a good one. She
dropped hit songs and she is fully booked for December. I am fully booked for
December too and the same thing applies to other artistes under Mavin. So, I
don’t understand why people are comparing this year with last year.”
For
Reekado, as long as he drops good Music and gets shows, he is not disturbed by
negative comments. He, however, admitted that controversies had made some
artistes to be more relevant than the others.
“Controversies,
in a way, put you in the public eye. In showbiz, no matter how good you are,
the controversial singers get more credit and awards. But I don’t quantify
success with awards, it is far different from that.”
