Top Nigerian music producer, Michael Ajereh, who is popularly known as Don Jazzy has made a revelation that foreign artistes are usually scared to make music and work with him. The Mavin Boss made the revelation in an interview conducted by Boiler room in collaboration with British Council.
He explained that some of them have contacted him and after making a beat for them, they want him to modify it to suit their own sound and when he does not accept, they walk out.
He said, “Most of these American artistes call you. They believe you have something that they like, so they call you to come and try something out.
“A bunch of people that I have tried to work with or have tried to work with me chicken out at the end of the day because they aren’t really ready for the music change; they want me to tweak it till it gets back to their sound.
“I can give you your sound, but then, you called me for something and then I try to give to my sound and I want you to do your thing on top of it which would give the sound a wider recognition but they say they aren’t ready for this switch drastically. I think they are still scared.”
