These are definitely not the best of times for Olawale Ashimi popularly known as Brymo. Chocolate City, his former record label through their law firm, L & A Legal Consultants on Monday, October 21 got an injunction against him, “restraining him from recording, releasing, distributing any composition, song, musical works or carrying out any activity as a recording or performing artist through or for the benefit of any person or organisation other than Chocolate City”, pending the determination of the suit against him.
What this means is simple: Brymo cannot function as an artist, unless he and his former employers settle their rift. Apparently Brymo wasn’t happy with the way Choc City was handling his career and felt it was high time he left for greener pastures. One cannot help but wonder if Brymo was in the dark over some aspects of the contract he signed with Chocolate City.
Apparently, he remains their artiste till 2016. We just hope this matter is settled amicably and on time as Brymo is considered too talented not to work. So far, he joins the ranks of those who had issue with their employers over some contractual ‘clause’ or something: Kelly Handsome, 2Face, Wizkid, May D… the list is quite lengthy.
