‘Kiss Daniel Was On 30k-a-Month Salary, Even After ‘Woju’ Banger’

Few days ago, we reported the dirty legal battle between ‘Woju’ crooner, Kiss Daniel and his former record label, G-World Entertainment, owned by Emperor Geezy.

Well, more cans of worm continue to pop as a ‘close source’ who spoke to Gistmania have revealed that Kiss Daniel was on a 30k and 50k salary for long parts of his career with G-World Entertainment.

The following is an excerpt from the interview:

“From the beginning of his contract (a 7 years and 5 album contract) he wasn’t placed on any percentage rather Kiss Daniel was placed on a monthly salary of 30,000 (thirty thousand naira) up until ‘Woju’ remix was released then it was later increased to 50,000 (fifty thousand naira) before he insisted on a review of his contract in 2015 and by the second quarter of 2015 he began to receive 40% of his performance fees. All the while he was collecting 30k, the boy already had a monster hit song ‘Woju’ and was raking in millions of naira.

“I really can’t place the date but I’m sure he was on that salary till after the release of ‘Laye’ which was released in May 2015.”

Speaking on collaborations, he said:

“the label categorically banned him from doing collaborations and made it look like he’s the one avoiding it. Or have you also seen his label mate, Sugarboy on any collaborations? The industry can testify to it, I won’t mention names but we all know. All the superstars who came to support Kiss Daniel at his album listening party, he couldn’t pay back the favour when they needed him because the label prevented him from doing so.
Basketmouth even had to block him on Instagram because Kiss was supposed to do a show for him but his label refused and Basketmouth got angry thinking Kiss Daniel was the one playing games with him.

“Kiss Daniel couldn’t even make it to his own father’s burial because his label threatened him’.
‘on the day of his father’s burial, he already had a show that was booked and his label told him they don’t care about his father’s burial but he had to attend the show else he’ll get sued. At that time, Kiss Daniel was still on a monthly salary of 50,000 and two days before his father’s death, his kid brother was also involved in accident that left him unconscious for weeks. The label only gave him 200,000 to buy ‘coffin and fry puff puff.”
