Pheelz debunks losing hard drive containing 25 unreleased songs of Temmie Ovwasa

Published

Pheelz, the music producer, has reacted to claims made against him by Temmie Ovwasa, a former signee of YBNL, a label run by Olamide, the Nigerian rapper.

Pheelz has had to work with YBNL and its owner Olamide in the past as a record producer.

His breakthrough came in 2012 when he produced Olamide’s chart-topping tracks ‘First of All’ and ‘Fucking with the Devil’.

Ovwasa had accused Pheelz of carelessly misplacing a hard drive that contained over 25 of her unreleased songs while with YBNL.

“I recorded over 25 songs and Pheelz opened his wide mouth to tell me he misplaced the hard drive. 25 songs!” Ovwasa said.

In response, Pheelz on Saturday refuted the claim, stating that they only worked on four to five songs together.

He cautioned the singer against “disrespecting” his name by “spreading lies” for social media clout.

Pheelz also suggested that she listen to ‘Jelo’, his new single, if she needs a mood lift.

“We never worked on more than 4-5 records. Hard drive lost? Lmao. Don’t ever disrespect my name,” his tweet partly reads.

Born Phillip Kayode Moses, Pheelz began producing music at the age of 12.

He has worked with some of the biggest names in Nigerian music, including Olamide, Davido, Wizkid, Tiwa Savage, and Fireboy DML.

He is signed to Warner Records and has received several recognitions for his craft.

Odumodublvck, the Nigerian rapper, has recalled how Don Jazzy, the music producer, gave him $10,000 during one of their meetings.

In a recent interview on Beat 97.9FM, the rapper, whose real name is Tochukwu Ojogwu, said he had reached out to Don Jazzy to collaborate on his song ‘Asampete’.

The 31-year-old said he felt that the music producer’s vocals were needed to complete the track.

Odumodublvck said during his visit to Don Jazzy’s residence, he was given the money and told that he could keep all the royalties from the song.

He added that Don Jazzy even offered to be featured as an artiste on the track.

“Don Jazzy is the king of Afrobeats. But ask anybody there is nobody who is more original than Don Jazzy. Don Jazzy is an OG. Respect to my brothers Burna, Wiz, Olamide, Dave all of us used to look up to him. Like the way we used to look up to them — Wizkid and David, they used to look up to him,” he said.

“…I just hit him up. The first day we did ‘Asampere’, I recorded a vocal that sounded like Don Jazzy’s vocal and I was like Don Jazzy should do it.

“When I went to meet him, he gave me a lot of money. I have to put it out there. I tell them everywhere I go. He gave me $10,000 cash. Don no be for mouth. He still gave me vocals.

“He now told me that I can keep all the royalties and I can keep him as a featured artiste. That day, they still cooked food for me to eat. They gave me turkey. The line for ‘turkey’ was already put in the song and that was God.”

Lil Smart, the Nigerian dancer, has filed a petition against Naira Marley and Zinoleesky over the alleged threat to his life.

On December 9, Smart shared disturbing photos and videos on social media, claiming his life was in danger.

He warned that Naira Marley and Zinoleesky should be held responsible if anything happened to him.

Zinoleesky, however, denied the allegations, accusing Smart of “chasing clout”. He also threatened legal action against the dancer.

In a recent Instagram post, Smart alleged he had previously endured bullying from the singers but lacked the evidence needed to take legal action.

He said he has officially submitted his petition with the necessary evidence to the authorities and is hopeful that the legal system will grant him justice.

“This has not been the first or third time I have been experiencing this bullying. But I did not have enough evidence to face the law. Now, I thank God that I have very good evidence, and I will put everything I have in line to make sure this bullying and threat to life is stopped,” he said.

“With my evidence, I really hope that they are not too big to be apprehended and face the law. I have submitted my petition, and I have provided my evidence to the authorities. By God’s grace, the law that binds us as citizens of Nigeria will make sure I get the justice I deserve.”

Naira Marley is yet to comment on the allegations.
