Philkeyz recounts how he turned down working with Kizz Daniel
Philip Ahaiwe Chukwuja, also known as Philkeys, a Nigerian producer, has disclosed that he once turned down Kizz Daniel after the singer offered him N50,000 for a studio session.
He stated this in a recent interview with MTV Base Africa.
According to him, Kizz Daniel was still a rising star when he made the offer, which Philkeys turned down since he was already working with famed singer King Sunny Ade.
However, Philkeys stated that he later met Kizz Daniel and they collaborated on several tracks when the singer rose to fame.
“He [Kizz Daniel] reached out to me. He was not signed then. He told me that he had a certain amount of money, I think N50k, that he wanted to work with me.
“But my charges don pass N50k by that time wey I come dey work for Sunny Ade. That time I be big boy. I was like, ‘No o, I’m not doing.’
“I was gonna see if he was going to call me back but he didn’t call me back, so we just allowed that part to slide. Then, when he blew up, he called me back saying that he wanted to work with me.” He recounted.
