9. D’Banj insisted that he had had great success since leaving Mo’Hits. He won awards, travelled the world, had the most downloaded song in 2013 and reached the point where he wanted to expand and do something new. He made clear that that just because he has not been spending all his time in Nigeria, it did not mean that he has not been successful.
10. He denied that his new song ‘Feeling the Nigga’ was written by Akon, and that he had made a cameo appearance in it. He said that Akon is in the remix and that they are both his songs. D’Banj became very irate at Olisa’s insinuations and threatened to walk out of the interview if the presenter did not admit that the song was his.
11. Olisa asked what happened with D’Banj’s Koko mobile phone, and why it has not been seen on the market, but he refused to go into this topic in any depth. He said that the phone had sold out, and hinted at a deal with Apple which he could not talk much about due to contractual limitations. He also has a deal with Beat’s by Dre and the headphones will be released soon (hopefully by Easter) in Africa.
