Indigenous Nigerian rapper Olamide is on a mission to expose some 21st-century slave masters in Nigeria that disguise and still practising themselves as record labels.
The idea of this comes when Olamide posted a series of messages on his Intastory about some record label that is still operating the 21st-century slave houses who pose as business entities only to bring artistes into their folds and cage them rather than make them flourish as they should.
However, Olamide has not cited any name yet but he said that he’s looking for a scapegoat before he’ll raise an alarm because the rapper feels no artiste should go through such slavery because of their craft.
He went further to encourage them to change the game the way young record label owners are changing it and allow every party to benefit from the business.
Another industry stakeholder. a producer, Samklef also stated that some record labels go as far as exploiting the artiste to milk investors. He said; Some even sign u to use u to milk the investors. One day God will expose them.
