I declined to make beats for Kizz Daniel after he offered me N50k – Producer Philkeys
Philkeys recently shared the story of how he rejected Kizz Daniel’s offer of N50,000 for a studio session back when the singer was still emerging in the music industry.
The talented Nigerian music producer explained that he declined the offer due to his ongoing work with King Sunny Ade, which commanded a higher fee than N50,000.
Despite turning down the initial opportunity, Philkeys and Kizz Daniel eventually joined forces on various tracks once the latter achieved stardom. The producer disclosed this interesting revelation during a recent interview conducted by MTV Base Africa.
“Kizz Daniel reached out to me. He was not signed then. He told me that he had a certain amount of money, I think N50k, that he wanted to work with me.
“But my charges don pass N50k by that time wey I come dey work for Sunny Ade. That time I be big boy. I was like, ‘No o, I’m not doing.’
“I was gonna see if he was going to call me back but he didn’t call me back, so we just allowed that part to slide. Then, when he blew up, he called me back saying that he wanted to work with me,” he said.
