KCee and Igwe Credo

Nigerian chanter Igwe Credo Mbem recently disclosed how popular singer KCee used a fictitious identity to entice him to Lagos, whereupon he was apprehended at the airport.

The young musician disclosed in the interview that since the beginning of the whole scandal, KCee has only paid him and Ojazzy N500k.

Igwe Credo provided a summary of the payments, the amount, and the purpose of the funds. Igwe Credo explained the beginning of it all.

He said: “I was fighting for the publishing rights of the song, which is entitled to everybody who participated in the song. I did the chant and hyping of E-Money in Ojapiano. I am asking for the split-ship for the two songs I helped create.”

Igwe Credo revealed that he was involved in the songwriting process in addition to serving as Ojazzy's manager.

During the conversation, Igwe mentioned that ever since appearing on YanBaba's show and disclosing his interactions with KCee, his life had become a nightmare.

He revealed during the interview in November 2022, when his conversation with YanBaba became viral, he was imprisoned and lured to Lagos by KCee.

He said: “What happened was that a client called us and said he had a gig for us. We charged them N2.5m, but we agreed on N2m. One million was paid into our account, and flight tickets were booked for me and Ojazzy.

"On arriving in Lagos, we were picked up at the airport by the police and were thrown in jail. We never knew it was KCee who was behind it all. He lured me and Ojazzy from Awka to Lagos so he could deal with us.”

Igwe Credo shared that he and Ojazzy spent a day in jail but were bailed out by his management.

“Ojazzy was paid off, I am yet to receive shishi” – Mbem revealed Igwe Credo confirmed that he is currently in discussions with KCee and his management, as they have agreed to give 5% of the split-ship and royalties of the two songs. Though the contract for this has yet to be signed.

“After we were released, Ojazzy had an agreement with them as he was paid off; that was why he was given the car. But I am yet to receive shishi. They also agreed to use him whenever KCee has a show, and he needs an Oja person.”
