It's 2024 and I'm still listening to this song...who else??
@banjijohnson6028
Why can't some people just appreciate someone else effort and work,Dbanj is human being and life is all about changes.Working with Don Jazzy is just like working with any other company or someone working for a company.Its your right to change on leave the company if you wish and you have every right to do so if you are not under contract and even another company can buy you contract,this is how is works in music industry aswell.Don Jazzy and Dbanj are not enemy,haters say what you like.Gbam !!!
