This just came in from BrymO's camp in relation to the ongoing dispute
between BrymO Olawale and Chocolate City Entertainment. View the release
below.
"On the 30th of October 2013, a meeting was held between Brymo, his
Management and representatives of Chocolate City at the Chocolate City
office. This was one of many prior attempts at reaching a mutually
acceptable resolution of the conflict between the Artiste and the Record
Label. After deliberations at the meeting, certain terms were agreed
between the parties and Chocolate City promised to capture the terms in
an agreement to be signed by both parties.
A few days later, Chocolate
City sent in a plan with terms which were not reflective of the
deliberations and agreements at the said meeting. A similar occurrence
had taken place in June when lawyers representing Chocolate City
promised to hand Brymo a Statement of Release from the label on the
condition that he would give up his (#SonOfaKapenta) album to the label.
The artiste had insisted that Chocolate City has no right to the work as
he still possessed the rights to the work and the lawyers had failed to
provide the release even after Brymo agreed to give up the said album.
Please note that the artiste's initial decision to release his work/
earnings was done in good faith and with a desire to reach an amicable
settlement. It is becoming apparent that Chocolate City is not acting in
the same spirit of good faith. The artiste elected to sever
relationships with Chocolate City in May 2013 when Chocolate City
consistently failed to fulfill its obligations under the contract. And
rather than resolve amicably, the label is devising strategies to ensure
that the Artiste remains unproductive. Brymo asserts that under the
circumstances of the creation, nature, execution and implementation of
his contract with Chocolate City, he is well within his rights as an
Artiste and if no amicable resolution is reached, will be willing to
defend same under the provision of the Law."
