Gossip & Gists: Wizkid And Waje Have Reportedly Dropped Godwin Tom As Their Manager

Pop stars Wizkid and Waje have allegedly parted ways with their manager Godwin Tom. We gathered last night, that Wizzy and Godwin Tom may have had a disagreement after a recent overseas trip to Dubai and the UK.

Sources are saying Tom threw in the towel following the bitter spat, although we could not immediately confirm this. The popular music manager who has in the past managed acts like M.I and Show Dem Camp, has also parted ways with his other client Waje. The the cause of the business relationship breakdown between Waje and Godwin Tom is yet to be revealed, but we confirmed reliably it’s over for the duo who had a great relationship with plenty PDA.

Godwin Tom has been dropping some cryptic comments on Twitter and Instagram which shows signs of frustration over the recent developments. Godwin Tom tweeted ‘Fuck this shit… I’m done!’ a few days ago. He’s told close friends he may consider taking a break from the Nigerian music scene to try his hands on other ventures. ‘I’m on the move and I can’t look back… No regrets at all! Wasted time, I can’t get that back so everyday I go hard! #NoRegrets Pusha T,’ he added.

Both singers have removed Godwin Tom’s name and contacts from their Twitter pages and replaced them with their new managements. Waje’s Publicist has already confirmed to us that Godwin Tom is no longer managing the Edo State born singer. ‘Godwin Tom is no longer managing Waje ,’ Waje’s media rep Wild Flower PR told us. All efforts to reach Godwin Tom by correspondence have so far been unsuccessful. Godwin Tom started working with Waje in 2012, the same year he teamed up with Wizkid after the singer parted ways with his first manager Osagie Osarenkhoe.

Waje picked up the award for her performance on the Reggae-inspired 'I wish' beating Orezi’s ‘Rihanna’, General Pype's 'Give it to me' and Baba Dee's ‘Go down’. The song was produced by P-Square's drummer, Joseph 'Papy J' Ameh and released in September 2012.

"What a wonderful way to end the year, thanks to my management", Waje said. Shortly after Waje was announced winner and picked up her award on stage from Toolz, Orezi took to his Twitter account to express his feelings; "And waje won the best ragga dance hall song wit I wish at the #headies. It’s ok" @iamorezi wrote on the micro-blogging site.

Interestingly, the category which was scraped in 2011 was re-introduced this year due to ‘popular demand’, organizers say. So who do you think should have won it? Watch the videos of both acts and tell us.

Gossip & Gists: Waje Says She Was Not Nude In ‘I Wish’ Video

The singer told E! 365 in an interview that the ‘nude’ scene was computer generated.

 

‘After being on set of the movie, Tunnel, I realized that our music videos are like movies painting the right picture and acting it. 

‘I Wish’ video is a lifeless theme and the song is a vulnerable song, and I tried to interprete it in that abstract nude picture with the broken mirrors. 

It’s me trying to interprete a woman’s vulnerability’, she said.
