Chief Executive Officer of Eric Many Entertainment, Dilly Umeniyora, has claimed that singer, Runtown, who was signed to his label, owed him about $1.5 million when he left.
The music executive auto dealer and businessman made the claim while having a chat with online media personality, Daddy Freeze.
“When Runtown left my label he owed me about $1.5 million,” Umenyiora said while praising a new signee, Gnewzy.
According to the music label boss, Gnewzy is talented and better than Runtown. He bragged that the new artiste will blow within a year unlike Runtown who blew after about five years.
He said; “My new artiste Gnewzy is very talented. So far as he is healthy, there’s no way I would not make profit from my investment in him. Because he is better than Runtown.
“I signed Runtown because I’ve the ears for music. I was patient with Runtown. Runtown blew in five years, Gnewzy will blow in less than one and a half years,” Umenyiora added.
Runtown got signed to Eric Many Entertainment in 2014 and dropped his debut project, ‘Ghetto University’, the following year. However, the deal went after Runtown accused the label of threatening his life in 2016 when he tried to terminate his contract with them.
The musician went on to launch his own label, Sound God Music Group, in 2018, while a legal battle between him and Dilly concluded in January 2019 when the court ruled in favour of Runtown.
