Ice Prince is in the news again but now, not for a good reason.
Just after the news of his BET award
which he received in an ‘empty hall’ made waves recently, the artiste
has been accused of not performing in a show which he was allegedly paid
for in Paris. Read more
The singer, as Saturday Beats gathered,
was allegedly billed to put up a 10pm appearance at the Salons and
Wilson Club in Paris last Saturday. However, he didn’t show up till it
was 6am the next day.
Obviously irked by the act’s behaviour, fans took to twitter and blasted the singer the social media.
However, the singer, in his twitter
handle, apologised to his fans and blamed his act on the show promoter.
He said, “Apologies to the fans that came out last night. A better
promoter will put up a better show soon.”
And of course, someone who claimed to be close to the show promoter, Onyeka Nwelue, didn’t take this lightly. He too went on twitter and blasted the singer, calling him unprintable names.
In any case, when Saturday Beats reached
out to Chocolate City, Ice Prince’s label, to ascertain what really
went wrong in Paris, a member of staff of the label, Ibukun Abidoye,
said Chocolate City wasn’t ready to comment on the rift.
“I am sure you will hear from us very soon. We are going to issue a press release concerning the issue,” she said.
