He went on to say he has more to say but scared that he might get “stabbed” if he divulged more about the record label.
Speaking via his social media page, Ruger tweeted, “As much as I’m very appreciative of the fact that Jonzing world introduced me to the world, I just couldn’t continue with them because they got too comfortable with the money they were making from me and couldn’t push me further as I wanted to be pushed. Was supposed to renegotiate the contract but I couldn’t imagine 5 years more without action.
“Dey use my money Dey fund new artist, leaving me in the dark, not being transparent. I just laugh. How e be now?
“Many things to to talk but dem fit go wait for me for ikoyi link bridge stab me wotowoto.”
Ruger left Jonzing World on February 6, 2024, following the expiration of his contract.
In an Instagram post after his exit, he said he was grateful to Jonzing World and D’Prince but it was time for him to take a bet on himself.
