After months of speculation
about his future, Iyanya has
finally broken the silence by
announcing that he is
officially joining Mavin
Records with the release of a
new song featuring Don Jazzy
and Dr. Sid.
The new hit tune entitled “Up
2 Sumting” is produced by
Mavin Records head-honcho,
Don Jazzy.
It was released on Monday,
which coincides with the
singer’s 30th birthday.
With this new move, Iyanya
joins other artistes on the
record label including Tiwa
Savage, Dr. Sid, D’Prince,
Korede Bello, Reekado Banks
and Di’Ja.
“I am at a decision-making
curve in my music career
where I have to make the
right professional and
creative decisions,” Inyanya
said. “At this point, I realised
the need to put in solid
structures in place to move to
the next level of my career. I
think I have found that
professional and creative
backbone in Mavin Records.”
Don Jazzy, who broke the
news on his Twitter handle
on Monday, was also excited
about the new partnership.
“Iyanya brings his own
unique style and sound to the
Mavin Records family,” he
said.
“From the first time I stepped
into the studio with him,
there was an instant
chemistry and energy. He is
an amazing talent and he has
great musical versatility. This
is an exciting time for us and
our fans have a lot of great
music to look forward to.”
The groundbreaking move is the Cross
River State-born singer’s first major one
after his decision to sign a management
deal with leading creative talent agency,
Temple Management Company as part of
efforts to launch a new phase of his
career.
Iyanya was previously signed on with
Ubi Franklin’s Made Men Records.
Up until his exit from the label early in
the year, Iyanya was the biggest artiste
on the platform. Franklin has since
found a replacement in Teckno who is
responsible for the hit, Pana.
