Don Jazzy shuts down PoP night club



Months after opening his night club, PoP, in Victoria Island, Mavin CEO and ace music producer Don Jazzy has shut it down. Heard he shut down the club down after realizing running a music label is different from running a night club.

PoP was shut down because it wasn't making money as expected. Heard some people will show up at the club just to take photos with him and leave. Also, some important people will buy drinks and not pay. Naija people sef. Lol. Well, he has shut the club down to concentrate fully on his music label.

Wande Coal Denies Leaving Mavin Records






Award-winning singer/songwriter, Wande Coal, of Mavin Records has announced in a press statement that he has no plans to set up his own record label. The Mavin artist has emphatically denied online reports, stating that he that he wished to set up his own music label. The RnB star reaffirmed his commitment to Don Jazzy’s label and insisted that Mavin provided an enabling environment for him to realize all his ambitions as an artist.
In the press statement Wande Coal expressed his anger at the rumours being peddled that he is dissatisfied with the operations of Mavin Records. He equally stated that he and Don Jazzy had never once discussed the possibility of setting up a new label. He added that it was quite unfortunate that reputable entertainment magazines were sharing unconfirmed news.
“There have been no such plans, and I wish to remain in Mavin Records,” he said.
“Mavin Records is my family and will always remain so. I want to thank all my fans for continuing to support me. We still have a very long journey ahead.”

In the wake of Don Jazzy’s new label announcement…D’Banj congratulates & Kay Switch mocks the Mavin crew…

Wow it’s been a busy 24hrs for Don Jazzy and his Mavin Crew in the wake of him announcing a new label last night, Mavin Records
[READ MORE HERE - DON JAZZY REBRANDS WITH MAVIN RECORDS]
A few hours ago the playlist for the Solar Plexus mixtape dropped on Youtube [CHECK ON IT HERE], and the last 24 hours have been a tad dramatic to say the least.
Shortly after news of the new label was announced D’Banj tweeted a congratulatory message to Don Jazzy, saying “Congrats to my brother and the best producer in Africa Don jazzy on the launch of his new Record Label, MAVIN RECORDS. Wish u all the best.” to which Don Jazzy replied with a simple “Thanks Bro, God Bless”


Later in the afternoon K-Switch (D-Banj’s) bro and the only former Mo-Hits artiste without a label to call home, mocked the new Mavin crew by putting up a mock photo of the crew on his BBM display pane calling them “Revenge Records: The Avengers”…why so bitter Mr. Switch? All that time spent photo-shopping that image (if u actually did it yourself?) you could have put into recording a half decent song.
And in other Mavin news Tiwa Savage (the 1st Lady of Maven) is revealed to have been in talks with Don Jazzy for severeal months about joining forces with him. She has been officially been released from her contract with Cecil Hammond’s Flytime Promotions.
According to NETNG Tiwa Savage signed with Mavin Records 2 weeks ago, as soon she managed to wangle her way out of her contract with Flytime. If you have been following Tiwa’s career since she came on the scene 2 years ago, Flytime has been in charge of overseeing her career in the last 18 months.
Clearly Don Jazzy means business…word on the streets is that he is signing more acts to the label.
