In a bid to reposition his dwindling career, Gongo Aso crooner, Abolore
Akande otherwise known as 9ice has signed a management deal with showbiz
promoter, Cecil Hammond.
Although the details of the agreement is still sketchy however, EE learnt that Hammond’s Flytime Promotions will now act as the official Artist and Repertoire representative (A&R) of the multiple award-winning hip hop artiste.
9ice’s recent double release entitled Versus and Bashorun Gaa has failed to make a resounding impact in spite of heavy promotions.
EE contacted Flytime Promotion’s official publicist, Amadi Ogbonna who confirmed the development and added that finer details of the deal are being worked out. He revealed that an elaborate unveiling ceremony will hold very soon.
Cecil Hammond whose management/ recording deal was recently turned down by rave of the moment, Davido has been credited to be among the forces behind the unprecedented success of Tiwa Savage.
Last month, the MOBO Award winner unceremoniously dispensed with the services of his manager of over a decade, Dehinde Fajana. The news came as a shock to many who knew the duo though some pointed out that the allegation by the musician estranged wife, Toni Payne may be a factor.
The mother of the musician’s first son, Zion has never ceased to declare at any given opportunity that Fajana was behind her messy separation from husband –9ice.
