Ghanaian dancehall star Kaakie recently
announced her split from her management team Xtra Large Music. In a
lengthy post on social media, Kaakie simply announced the breakup,
giving little details over what might have led to it.
Although there were speculations that,
Samini's choice of picking trending dancehall act Ebony over Kaakie
could have played a role in the breakup with JMJ's Xtra Large Music,
Kaakie has refuted the claims saying she only broke a bad deal which
management wasn't ready to review.
Speaking in an interview with Berla
Mundi on Rhymthz Live, the dancehall queen revealed that she had
little idea about the deal she initially signed with her former
record label.
"I was young when I signed to
JMJ's record label"
"I didn't even involve a lawyer
then, I only invited a lawyer to read my contract after I had signed
a bad deal"
"It was one of the stupid mistakes
I ever did as a musician"
Asked what the details of her contract
were, Kaakie revealed the 3-album contract only ended up with her
releasing only an album and over 20 songs.
"Management wasn't ready for a
review of my contract when I ask at some point"
"It may interest you to know I
don't even own a single song I have released so far. I feel I have
wasted 6 years of my music career but I'm ready for a new beginning.
Not even my Facebook and Twitter accounts are mine. Last I heard, my
social media pages have been deleted but, I promised my fans of my
new pages by the end of this week," she wrapped.
Kaakie is currently not signed to
Zylofon Media as fans have speculated but there are hopes she could
join them soon. She believes her passion for dancehall is still what
is it but she'll start a whole new career with hi-life music and soul
as a genre.
