Nigerian singer Oluwatosin Ajibade, better known as Mr Eazi, has revealed that a music producer refused to honour a business deal after receiving payment.
The Hol Up singer claimed that he paid the unnamed producer $5,000 to produce a song for him, but after transferring the funds, he failed to send the stems.

In music, stems are stereo recordings derived from mixes of multiple individual tracks, such as drums, vocals, and bass.
The song in question, according to the 32-year-old artist, will appear on his album, The Evil Genius.

Mr Eazi shared his experience on Twitter, hoping that the $5000 he lost would change the producer’s life.
He did, however, say that if he gets “bored,” he might consider suing the person for $100k.
There is a producer I paid $5000 to produce a song that was meant to be on my album and he never sent the stems lol I hope that 5k changed his life #TheEvilGenius 🏹 but the day I get bored I will spend 100k to sue ur ass
