In a shocking turn of events, Greenland Africans Multimedia has made a strong statement against Byno Ayoni and VRMG, expressing their deep disappointment over what they claim are deceitful actions by the artist and the record label.
The disagreement centers around allegations of breaches of contract, infringement of intellectual property rights, and a lack of proper investigation.
In a press release sent to journalist and blogger Attractive Mustapha on January 12, 2024, Greenland Africans Multimedia accused Byno Ayoni of making false statements during a TV3 interview, leaving out important details about the organization’s executive production and management role in his music career after Senior High School (SHS).
The statement also pointed out Ayoni’s alleged performance of material produced by Greenland Africans Multimedia on the TV3 Mentor Platform without permission. Furthermore, the organization expressed concern over VRMG’s signing of Byno Ayoni without establishing a formal Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Greenland Africans Multimedia, despite Ayoni’s existing contractual obligations with their company.
Despite the seriousness of these allegations, Byno Ayoni and VRMG have not responded to the accusations. In response to the silence, Greenland Africans Multimedia issued a “Notice of Awaiting” on their official platforms.
The label has decided to refrain from engaging in social media discussions to give VRMG an opportunity for peaceful dialogue. However, as of now, no steps have been taken by the opposing parties. The notice emphasizes the label’s patience but asserts that they will take necessary actions if the situation remains unresolved.
It warns that the gods of their land and tradition will be the last resort, signaling a serious intent to involve higher authorities if the dispute persists. The public is urged to take note of this development and Greenland Africans Multimedia emphasizes that they will not entertain pleas on behalf of Byno Ayoni and VRMG if the matter escalates due to what they perceive as continuous insubordination in financial matters.
This ongoing saga raises questions about the nuances of the music industry and the significance of contractual agreements, intellectual property rights, and due diligence in artist-label relationships. Greenland Africans Multimedia remains steadfast in its commitment to address what they see as clear violations of their rights, leaving the public eagerly awaiting further updates on this unfolding drama.
