Why I left Mavin Records – Reekado Banks
Nigerian singer Ayoleyi Hanniel Solomon, better known as Reekado Banks, has revealed why he left his former label, Mavin Records, admitting that the exit was premature.
Banks, who said goodbye to Mavin Records in 2018, established his own brand, Banks Music.
Dishing on parting ways with his former label, the ‘Katapot’ crooner, in a recent chat with reality star Teddy A on the Echoo Room, shared that his contract had ended two years before.
“It [my exit from Mavin Records] wasn’t a conflict situation. I was pretty young and pretty fixated on what I wanted to do -I wanted to leave.
“Anyways, my contract ended two years prior. I signed a three-year contract, and I allowed it to ride for another two years. So, I was there for five years without reviewing the contract.
“So, when it was time, I thought I wanted to do this [leave] now. I thought I could do it now. I just embarked on the journey, as many people would view it, prematurely.
“As soon as I jumped into the sea as well, I realised how premature it was,” Reekado Banks said.
