During the livestream, he said:

The singer went on to admit that the experience contributed to a long-term smoking habit, a revelation that has since triggered mixed reactions across social media.

Crayon rose to mainstream attention in 2019 with his breakout single “Aye,” which helped establish him as one of the new-generation voices in Afrobeats and paved the way for collaborations with several top Nigerian artists.

He joined Mavin Records in 2017 and recently announced his exit from the label, revealing he is now an independent artist under Olodum Entertainment. His departure followed public comments in which he accused the label of withholding payments and royalties, further fueling conversations around artist-label relationships in the industry.

Crayon, in a series of posts that have since been deleted, accused Don Jazzy of being responsible for his mother’s death and claimed the music executive owed him unpaid royalties. The drama sent shockwaves across social media, drawing reactions from fans and industry insiders alike.

Samklef took to his social media pages to share his perspective, suggesting that things have shifted for Don Jazzy since his association with social media activist VeryDarkMan.

“I tell una say jazzy go cast soon! Dem don see Don Jazzy finish crayon even call am his boy chai! Ever since Don Jazzy met a very dark man, all the signed artists no gree blow.

And who notices say once any artist leaves me…………hmhhhhmmmm,” he wrote.

Samklef’s comments have reignited discussions about the internal dynamics at Mavin Records and the pressures faced by artists under the label, especially following high-profile departures and public disputes.

Nigerian singer and producer Crayon, real name Charles Chibueze Chukwu, has sparked a major stir online with a series of explosive messages directed at Don Jazzy, Rema, and the iconic Mavin Records.

The Lagos-born 28-year-old, who climbed the ranks of Mavin’s talent pipeline before officially joining Blowtime Entertainment, an imprint linked to Mavin, in 2019, went on a social media tirade that fans are calling one of the most dramatic artist-label clashes in recent memory.

Crayon’s posts blended playful affection with scathing attacks. He kicked off with an almost bewildering shoutout to Don Jazzy:
“Don jazzy na my boy!!!!!! Una dey maddddd!!?? Shayennnnn sharayyyyyy333”

But the tone shifted sharply, taking aim at the label’s COO:
“Tega highest criminal!!!!!!!!!”

He didn’t stop there. The singer broadened his target to Mavin Records itself, declaring:
“Mavin is going down!!!!!!”

And then he set his sights on the label’s biggest star:
“Rema for the next 100 years no feature. You stole my star from me. Yeah I took tha shiiiiii backkkkk hoeeeeerrrr!!!!! Snakkkkkkkeeeeeesssssssss.”

Crayon even drew comparisons between himself and his colleague:
“I’m HYM!!!! Not REMA!!!! Niggaaaaa I’m 69 in Africa!!!!!!!”

Industry observers note that the outburst may not be entirely out of the blue. Crayon’s recent single, Baami, was released without the usual promotional push from Mavin, sparking speculation that he might be stepping into a more independent phase of his career—or even planning a full departure from the label.

Fans also point to the singer’s quieter public presence since the passing of his mother last year, suggesting personal grief may be amplifying industry frustrations.

Adding fuel to the fire, Baami was released under a new label called “Olodum Ent” rather than Mavin Records, signaling a potential career pivot. The track, produced by Crayon’s frequent collaborator Ozedikus, arrived without the familiar Mavin branding and promotional machinery.

Crayon also reached out for creative contributions for his new imprint, tweeting:
“Any weird creatives that can come with OLODUM ENT FLAGGSSSSS!!!! Gets 500 million naira cash !!!!! With love WARAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!”

As fans and industry insiders dissect every tweet, it’s clear that Crayon’s next moves, whether independent releases or a complete break from Mavin, will be closely watched. One thing is certain: the Afropop star is making it loud and clear that he’s charting his own path.

The new track, released recently, was released under a different imprint, Olodum Ent., rather than the Mavin banner that has been associated with the singer since his breakthrough in 2019. The move has sparked widespread discussion among fans and industry watchers, with many wondering whether the artist may be preparing to move on from the label.

Crayon, whose real name is Charles Chibueze Chukwu, first rose through the ranks of Mavin’s talent pipeline before officially signing to Blowtime Entertainment, an imprint linked to Mavin, in 2019. Under the guidance of label boss Don Jazzy, he went on to build a strong reputation in the Afrobeats scene with popular songs like “Ijo (Laba Laba)” and his debut album Trench to Triumph, released in 2023.

However, the rollout for “Baami” has raised eyebrows. The single, produced by his frequent collaborator Ozedikus, arrived without the usual Mavin branding or promotion typically seen when artists from the label release new music. The absence of support from the label’s official platforms has further intensified speculation.

Observers also noticed that the singer recently updated his social media bio and profile image around the same time the track dropped — a move many fans believe could hint at a new chapter in his career.

The discussion comes at a time when Mavin Records itself has been undergoing major global expansion following its acquisition by Universal Music Group in a landmark 2024 deal.

Despite the growing conversation online, neither Crayon nor Mavin Records has released an official statement addressing the situation. It remains unclear whether the Olodum Ent. imprint signals a complete exit from the label, an independent side venture, or simply a temporary arrangement for the release.

Meanwhile, supporters of the singer have flooded social media with reactions, with many expressing excitement for his new music while also waiting for clarity about his future with the influential label.

For now, the development has left fans watching closely to see whether this marks the start of a new independent era for the Ojo-bred star.

The track has been released across major streaming platforms, giving fans another upbeat tune to add to their playlists.

On “Baami,” the singer crafts a vibrant sound built around themes of self-focus, protecting one’s hustle, and maintaining positive energy. Through playful yet pointed lyrics, he warns against interference from people who might disrupt his progress or peace of mind.

The release also arrives amid growing conversations about the singer’s next career move. The single was issued under the imprint Olodum Ent., rather than Mavin Records, the powerhouse label where he has spent much of his professional journey.

The development has sparked speculation among fans and industry observers, particularly after the artist made subtle changes to his social media pages around the same time the song dropped. Many have interpreted the updates as a hint that a new chapter may be unfolding for the artist, although neither the singer nor the label has publicly addressed the situation.

Musically, “Baami” carries an infectious groove, with Crayon delivering verses in a mix of Pidgin English and playful expressions that capture the carefree yet determined spirit of the track.

“I dey find my own/ You dey find your own/ No come put sand sand in my own garri o/ No come start dey move like Shagari o/ I dey for my zone/ You dey capri sonne,” he sings.

“No come kill the life of the party o/ No come take the ball for papilo/ If na class we dey/ I for show you my homework make you copy o/ This life wey we dey/ I no fit come dey dull am/ I be sharpilo.”

Alongside the single, the artist also unveiled vibrant visuals that complement the song’s energetic and colourful mood, giving listeners a full audiovisual experience.

With “Baami” now out, fans are watching closely to see what direction Crayon’s career will take next, especially as speculation continues to swirl around his relationship with the label that helped shape his rise in the Nigerian music scene.
