‘They Were Under Me’ – JJC Skillz Alleges Betrayal By Don Jazzy, D’banj [Video]

Popular Nigerian singer and producer, Abdulrasheed Bello, professionally known as JJC Skillz, has accused fellow music stars Don Jazzy and D’banj of conspiring with others to betray him many years ago.

JJC made the allegation during a recent interview on Echo Room, where he recalled events surrounding their early days as struggling artists in the United Kingdom.

According to JJC Skillz, Don Jazzy, D’banj and some others plotted against him despite his support for them at the time.

He said, “Don Jazzy, D’banj, Ayo, DJ Abass; all of them conspired against me. Taz brought a guy called Don Jazzy to me, and Ayo came through Abass. I met them because they were running a TV station.”

The singer explained that he had approached them for assistance, believing they were well-connected within the Nigerian entertainment industry.

JJC Skillz said he openly told them he needed help reconnecting with the Nigerian music scene and trusted them to facilitate the process.

He stated, “One day I came to them and said, ‘You guys are obviously well connected to Nigeria, and me, I am a JJC. I just need somebody to introduce me to the right people to work with in Nigeria.’ And they accepted that they were going to help me and they connected me to Bankulli.”

‘They Were Under Me then’

Recounting their working relationship at the time, JJC Skillz stressed that Don Jazzy and D’banj were part of his group and were under his guidance.

He said, “Don Jazzy and D’banj were under me then. So, these people who were supposed to introduce me back home to Nigeria, had plans that I didn’t know about.”

JJC Skillz further claimed that he later heard accusations that he had cheated the duo during their time working together in the UK.

According to him, “Then I heard something from Ruggedman saying that D’banj said I cheated them when they were working with me in the UK and that they are leaving my group.”

Expressing shock at the allegation, JJC insisted he had supported them financially and materially when they were still unknown.

He added, “I was shocked because nobody knew them back then. I was the one taking them to shows, accommodating, feeding and clothing them. So, how can I be cheating when you haven’t made any money?”
