12 Nigerian Artistes who have had issues with their Record Label

7. Ruggedman vs Little Fish

After Ruggedman dropped Ehen and basically revolutionized Hip Hop in Nigeria, a certain US-based Muri Ejalonibu – founder of Little Fish Records – offered him a contract. The label owner wanted to be a viable competition for Kennis Music – which was like the big fish then – and signed on the rapper who already had beef with them, based on his Ehen song. Long story short, the relationship that began really well took a downturn when Little Fish asked him to stop beefing people and start talking about other things. Rugged wouldn’t hear none of that, so he left, and the label – which had acts like Artquake signed on it – basically crashed.

Rugged may not be as relevant as he was back in the day, but he is still a name people remember.

So, verdict: Ruggedman 1 – 0 Label.
