Who Owns ” Fia ” by Davido? As Peruzzi’s Former Label Claims Ownership Of ” Fia ” & Davido’s Other Hit Songs

In the last few days, Nigerian singer and Davido Music Worldwide (DMW) act, Peruzzi has been embroidered with breach of contract accusation by his former record label, Golden Boy Entertainment (GBE).

The DMW‘s act Peruzzi was accused by his former label for not abiding by the terms and clause under the contract agreement he signed with the label in 2016. The owner of the label, Patrick Anyaene also accused the DMW‘s boss Davido for not treating him unfairly ever since Peruzzi has joined his label. The Golden Boy Entertainment boss also accused Davido that he’s not the owner of the 2017 hit song ” Fia ” and some other songs.

Ever since Peruzzi has joined to the DMW label imprint in November 2017, his career has flourished with the strength of the label and he himself has impressed fans when he featured on the group singles, ‘Mind’ and ‘Aje’ as well as his recent collaboration with 2face Idibia on ‘Amaka’.It is understood that while with DMW, Peruzzi still has a running contract with GBE and the owner seems unhappy as he isn’t getting a return on his investments.

Speaking during an exclusive interview with PUNCH, on Saturday, August 4, Anyaene revealed that Peruzzi has been releasing records and he has not been getting paid.

His words: “I don’t have problems with Davido; I have issues with Perruzi, my artiste. All the songs Davido released since last year November are my records. They are my records because those songs were written by my artiste. Songs like Fia, Ada, Mind by DMW, Aje by DMW and other songs they might be working on now are all the property of Golden Boy Entertainment.”

“Peruzzi has been going for shows and getting paid; I have been patient with them since November. I am unhappy because I have not been settled. As a businessman, when you invest money in an individual, you expect a return.

“Davido has given Peruzzi some guts to do whatever he likes; he has forgotten that he signed a contract with me and I have lawyers on the case.

“Perruzi started working with me in 2016 and I was paying him salary. I officially signed him in 2017 for a three-year contract. He has breached a contract and he is an ingrate.”

“I want everyone to shine, but if you disrespect me, I have the power to bring you down. We agreed I would get royalties from all the songs written by Peruzzi and get paid periodically. It was a verbal agreement; for us to meet and put everything into a paper agreement, they are pretending to be busy.

“I am just being tactical about the whole issue; they have cheated me. Though I am aware that Davido always gets away with things, I know how to deal with them. I plan to settle things without attracting any drama, but if Davido wants to take me for granted, I will expose them. For all the songs they have released, I have original copies and I can drop them if I desire to. I also have screenshots of my conversation with Davido that can implicate him.”
