'I’m Too Big for That': Blaqbonez on Why He Rejected $1M Mavin Records Offer

Nigerian rapper Blaqbonez




Popular Nigerian rapper, Blaqbonez, has publicly revealed the unconventional reason behind his decision to reject a lucrative recording contract with Don Jazzy’s Mavin Records, despite allegedly being offered a staggering sum of one million dollars.

The Chocolate City signee made the surprising disclosure through a candid post on his official X (formerly Twitter) handle. 

According to the "Emeka Must Shine" crooner, the primary deterrent preventing him from putting pen to paper with the powerhouse label was the heavy digital presence and constant social media commitment traditionally required by major record labels to drive music marketing campaigns.

Blaqbonez, known for his eccentric and highly engaging self-promotion tactics, humorously implied that he secretly harbors a desire for a low-profile online persona that conflicts with label expectations.

His declaration sparked widespread reactions across the Nigerian music ecosystem, with fans debating whether the claim was serious or part of his usual satirical online brand.

"Need to get this off my chest before chanel drops, the reason I didn’t sign to mavin when they were begging me with a million dollars is cos i don’t really like posting, I prefer 1 tweet per year than engaging my fans, I’m too big for that, I’m mysterious," the rapper wrote.
