Following the departures of Shallipopi and Seyi Vibez, 16-year-old rising star Muyeez has also announced his decision to leave the label, citing financial deceit, exploitation, and neglect.
Muyeez Breaks His Silence
In a heartfelt statement shared online, Muyeez revealed the struggles he faced as a minor under Dapper Music’s management: “I am breaking my silence to share the painful truth about my journey as an artist under Dapper Music & Entertainment Limited. What should have been a dream come true turned into a nightmare of exploitation, neglect, and betrayal.”
