According to sources,
Bankulli and D’banj have had arguments where they supposedly ‘parted ways’ but
ended up reconciling. ‘D’Banj and Bankulli have ‘called it quits’ four times
this year’,
However, Bankulli confirming
the split reiterated: “D’banj didn’t fire me, I just decided to move on”. He
declined to give reasons though.
Things began to go awry
between D’banj and Bankulli towards the end of last year, based on accusations
that D’banj is very insensitive and nonchalant.Sources in D’banj’s camp on
condition of anonymity stated thus; “what really happened was an accumulation
of D’banj’s insensitive attitude, of course he’s a big star, but he’s a very
difficult person, it’s part of his attitude and lifestyle”.
After the last edition of
Koko Concert that was held in December 2012 at the Eko Atlantic city, the
source claimed that D’banj went ahead to do a lot of things without consulting
with his team, and on the few occasions he did, he was insensitive, and rather
chose to attend private parties enjoying himself which in no small measure
contributed to some of the flops recorded during the Koko concert, and this
further infuriated Bankulli. “Truthfully, Bankulli travelled to Paris, France
few days after Koko Concert, and baba (D’banj) was aware, but it’s not certain
as at that time if he was going to France to work with Kanye West or not, but
it seemed D’banj wasn’t comfortable with the fact that Bankulli was getting
more attention from Kanye West’s camp” the source said.
For those in the know,
Bankulli was hugely instrumental in getting D’banj the G.O.O.D music deal,
because he was the one who approached Kanye West at the Dubai airport to listen
to D’banj’s songs and that signaled the beginning of the relationship between D’banj
and Kanye West.
Bankuli took over D’banj’s
affairs after former manager Sunday Are stepped down, following the Mo’Hits
2012 controversial split
