Published




Nigerian singer, Iyanya, has finally opened up about the intricacies that led to his departure from Ubi Franklin’s Made Men Music.

Iyanya said he didn’t sell his shares but left MMM which he co-owned with Ubi because there was so much darkness.

Explain further, the 32-year old singer said he realized that his name was not in any of the forms he signed and that left him broken.

The singer made the claims during a recent chat on Ndani TV and also revealed that Don Jazzy helped him pick off the pieces of his life.

Speaking about his departure from Made Men Music MMM, Iyanya said,

“What people don’t know is, I didn’t sell my share. People see me and say oh why did you sell your share? I didn’t sell my shares, I left Made Men at the time because there was so much darkness. In the midst of all the wings, I decided to let that go.

“When I said it was darkness, I was not myself anymore because I felt like there was no trust anymore. Because at the time I was singing I co-owned Made Men with Ubi but I later realized that my name was not in any of the forms I signed and I was broken and that was the beginning of me just saying to hell with everything”.

On his relationship with Don Jazzy and Mavin crew, Iyanaya added

“Mavin was … shout out to Jazzy… Jazzy gave me that platform to put music out because I left Made Men and I didn’t want anything from Made Men, so Jazzy just said look, man, you’ve built something over the years and starting all over is not going to be as easy as you think, so just put out music from here and work on something.

“So people really thought I signed to Mavin but it wasn’t like a legal signing, it was just love.

“And then Temple Music came, when Temple music came, I love the vision, I love the dream and I was like Okay, let me try this, and that was when I released “Up To Something,” “Hold On,” I mean,“Good Vibes.

“And after that, it was time for me to move, because I felt like I got to the point where I have to put out my own thing, have my own family, have my own team”.

“That was healing for me, that was the best time of the whole situation I was in, that was the best moment because Jazzy just opened his family and said look, you’re one of us and everybody just showed me that love coz it came from Jazzy.

“So from Jazzy to Tiwa, to Baby Fresh to everybody, it was just love and that really gave me life because, to be honest with you, I was broken. Like I was broken”.

Speaking about his relationship with Freda Francis, Iyanya said,

It was a great experience. Freda was amazing, a blessing to me at the time. However, when you go public now, everybody now owns the relationship.

“I just got to the point where I could do more. I was not done with my music. Being in a relationship was not distracting but I believe she was ready for marriage because she is very intelligent and doing well for herself.

“No disrespect but I am not the kind of guy that wants to be with a woman because she is doing well and then I forget I have my own goals. It was a way for me to sort my life now”.

The “Your Waist” cronner who has been noticeably quiet in the music industry also revealed that some persons are working very hard to frustrate him in the music industry.
