Why Capital Hills Records Didn't Renew Chidinma's Contract

Famous Nigerian musician, Chidinma Ekile, seems not to have found her foothold ever since she parted ways with her former record label, Capital Hills Records. One of the co-founders of the label, Ill Bliss, on the other hand, explained why the label agreed not to give her a new contract.

It was a very big surprise to music followers when they learnt of the singer’s exit from the label that made her. A lot of people thought she was going to establish her own label or better still connect with another thriving label.

In an encounter with Sunday Scoop, co-owner of Capital Hill Records, Ill Bliss, stated that it was the decision of the record company not to renew Chidinma’s contract when it expired. The rapper said,

“Chidinma didn’t just wake up one morning and leave the record label. Didn’t you guys see that the relationship degenerated? Her contract expired with Capital Hill and we did not want to renew it. We are the record company; so, we decide what to do with an artiste we create.”

According to him, when they started Capital Hill Records, there was no plan to keep artistes for a long time:

“From the start, Clarence Peters and I didn’t plan to keep artistes for too long. Phyno stayed for a year too. There is always a problem when you start to keep an artiste for too long because you want to recoup all the money you invested in him or her and make a huge profit too. We made some good money from these artistes; we made enough money to break even and cover all our expenses,” he said.

He added that when Chidinma’s contract expired after seven years with the company, they believed she needed to build her own team:

“Chidnma knows where to find us and she knows we will always help her if she needs our help. We only have me and Mz Kiss on the label at the moment,” Ill Bliss concluded.

Ramadan, which is the ninth month in the Islamic calendar is the only month in which Muslims, the world over fast from dawn till sunset for 29 or 30 days. Allaah commands Muslims to fast as stated in some parts of Suuratul Baqara (chapter 2) of The Glorious Qur'an. The Glorious Qur'an is the first and most important book to all Muslims. For all the Islamic months, starting from Muharram (first month) to Dhul Hajj (12th month), the numbers of days in each of these 12 months are often 29 days and once in a while 30 days.
