Record label, Rufftown Records has severed ties with late dancehall artiste, Ebony Reigns, and handed over her unreleased songs to her father, Nana Opoku Kwarteng.
This follows several disagreements between the father of the late artiste and the artiste manager of the label, Ricky Nana Agyemang, alias Bullet.
Following the burial of the late Ebony (real name Priscilla Opoku Agyeman), her father Mr Opoku Kwarteng has accused Bullet of treating him unfairly with regards to proceeds from his late daughter’s memorial concert.
In an interview with Accra-based Adom FM, Mr. Opoku Kwarteng claimed that Bullet gave him GH¢2000 out of GH¢39,999 that was accrued from the organisation of a tribute concert for the late Ebony.
Bullet has however refuted the claims saying that he has, on countless occasions, offered financial support to Mr Opoku Kwarteng.
In a statement released Tuesday, Bullet announced that he has cut ties with the late Ebony and has further handed over her unreleased songs to her father.
The statement said, “…the record label owns 60% royalties of Ebony Reigns’ unreleased songs but we are giving away full ownership to her father, Mr. Opoku Kwarteng”.
“All her unreleased songs that she wrote herself are owned by her father… If you wish to know more about when the songs will be coming out, please contact her father,” the statement added.
