Kelly Handsome relives ‘unpalatable’ experiences under former records label

Nigerian singer Orji Kelechi Obinna George Michael, professionally known as Kelly Handsome, has recalled unpalatable experiences under his former record label.

The “Maga Don Pay” crooner, who opened up on the AFRIMMA Podcast, said that while he was still with Kennis Music, his works were blocked despite his talents.

Kelly Handsome also shed light on how he was paid N450,000 to perform at a show, but unknown to him, the event organisers paid N6 million.

He said: ‘‘Don’t pick sides until you know the full story because some people are highly skilled in making others look bad. They’ve been doing this to everyone until e reach my turn. They do this sh** for a living. All eyes are on the @afrimma_podcast ����

‘‘As e dey hot!!! They go explain tire. Meanwhile, I just might hit the studio today. Let me remind them ‘who the F is because I’m 100% sure they forgot but hey, no hard feelings.

These revelations came days after Kelly Handsome alleged that music mogul Kenny Ogungbe blocked his interviews from being aired during their long-standing feud.

He said: “I did a lot of interviews that they didn’t let come out. Baba Keke blocked my interviews. I had people call me and threaten me; I had people call me when I did my show in London. It’s like bullying me.

“At the moment, I appear to be a little child. Did I have sex with anyone’s wife, I wonder? No. Have I cut any money? No.

“What have I done that cannot be forgiven?”
