See what Don Jazzy revealed about Falz, Simi, Teni

Ace Nigerian music producer and Marvin Record label boss, Michael Collins Ajereh is popularly known as Don Jazzy, has revealed his regret for not signing Falz, Simi, Teni, at the early stages of their career.

Don Jazzy made these revelations recently while speaking during a session of the Bounce Radio series known as Black Box Interview, hosted by Ebuka Obi-Uchendu.

During the interview, the record label boss explained how he lost Falz due to his affiliation with another manager and how he failed to choose Simi in a music contest he organized a year back.

According to him, “I can’t say I turned them down. For Falz, the working situation wasn’t just right. I run a firm that could handle almost everything he needed.

“But I think he had a management company set up already. It was like Tiwa Savage’s but I had to grow into that kind of scenario where I had to handle someone that had a record label, some blueprint process.

He also talked about Simi, stating that “I equally didn’t reject Simi. I did a Twitter contest for ‘Journey of A Thousand Miles. I also loved her cover because she was one of the people that participated but she didn’t win.

“I didn’t pick the winners. I liked her but you can’t sign anybody. That’s one person I also regretted, I won’t say regret. But I wish we worked on stuff together.

While speaking about Teni, Don Jazzy explained that he couldn’t sign her because she was based in Atlanta, USA at that time and he had not gotten to the stage of bringing people from overseas down to Nigeria.

Don Jazzy said, “We used to check up on each other but I had not grown to the point that I would move you from Atlanta to Nigeria for work. Now I can and we work before deciding if we are going to sign. Before I knew what was happening, there were faster people.

He said “She released records and I was like, ‘okay, we lost that one. Three hot stars.

He went further to say that the singer he never wanted to manage was Davido stating that, he knew he would become big.

Don Jazzy said, “The only person I didn’t want to sign was Davido I didn’t want to sign him but I knew he was going to be huge. They have money already now.”
