Lee Family: Is Tonto a means to an end?

LEE FAMILY

It’s no longer news that D’Banj unveiled the artistes signed to his DB record label. What came as a big surprise is the inclusion of Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh as one of the group member. The actress last year released two singles titled ‘Hi’ and ‘It’s Ova’ which received lots of criticism from many Nigerians. Recently, news spirally around is that since D’Banj parted ways with Don Jazzy, his career has taken a major turnaround. He has failed to deliver like he used to; unlike Don Jazzy who proved to Nigerians that he good at what he does regardless of who goes or stays. Infact, it is now said that D’Banj is living on past glory. It is very obvious that Don Jazzy was the brain behind his career.

Many believe that he signed Tonto to his record label because she loves to surround herself with controversies, (since that is what majorly sells in the entertainment industry) and also because Don Jazzy signed on Tiwa Savage as the first lady of Mavin Records. It is obvious that D’Banj is trying so hard to prove to Nigerians and his fans that he is still relevant; otherwise there are many talented female artistes that he could have signed on to his record label.
