D'banj and label mate Wande Coal are presently at loggerheads over whose album should drop first. According to our sources, trouble started with the ground breaking, commercial success that trailed Wande�s debut album, Mushin to Mo�Hits, released in 2009.The album propelled the Mushin, Lagos-bred young man from just being a backup singer for the crew to a substantive music star but with scant opportunities. The success of Wande�s debut was so huge that D�banj�s album, The Entertainer, which was released months before Wande�s, reportedly suffered a slump in sales. But things fall apart, when the demand for Wande at shows and concerts dropped considerably while his statutory proceeds from the little that came were either withheld or handed out to him as piecemeal. To underscore that he was no longer the beautiful bride, a source alleges, the standby generator in the Maryland house was moved to Lekki. In fact, he did not benefit from the presidential windfall that came the way of D�banj and Don jazzy unlike what would have been the case if things were right, �the source adds. Wande�s friend who spoke on condition of anonymity say though he knows he is being stifled and deliberately denied of cash, he is not particularly bothered because he still gets enough to keep body and soul together. What they say is Wande�s major grouse now is the seeming refusal of his label bosses Don jazzy and Dbanj to push any singles out or help him work towards the release of another album. It was further revealed that Wande has been neglected for the past one year or there about and that there is no effort whatsoever to help him release another album much less a single. Wande who believes competition in the industry is getting stiffer, and he needs to drop some singles to stay relevant, is allege to have plan for life after Mo Hits as he has reportedly incorporated his own record label (Black Diamond).
