The saga began when Fiokee, known for his exceptional guitar skills, and 1Dabanton, a rising talent in the Nigerian music scene, joined forces to create an unreleased track.

Impressed with the song’s potential, Fiokee approached Tekno with the proposition of featuring him on the track, believing it could elevate the song to new heights.

Tekno, who is no stranger to successful collaborations, was immediately captivated by the song’s sound and lyrics.

Instead of merely featuring on the track, he proposed a deal to purchase the song from Fiokee, 1Dabanton, and their team.

The song, which was written by Klem and 1Dabanton, saw DJ Coublon at the production helm, Fiokee lending his exceptional guitar skills, and Smathaudio overseeing the mixing and mastering process.

All parties involved in the song’s creation eagerly agreed to Tekno’s proposal, sealing the deal.

However, the situation took a sour turn when Tekno unilaterally decided to release the song, titled “King Of Pop,” as the fifth track on his album without fulfilling the agreement to compensate the original creators and contributors.

This unexpected move left Fiokee, 1Dabanton, Klem, DJ Coublon, and Smathaudio in a state of shock and disappointment.

In response to this breach of contract, Fiokee and his associates have decided to take legal action against Tekno to seek the compensation they believe they are owed.
