Bulldog Called Me a Failure and a Joke- Nii

Ghana Music.com can confirm that Nii of TV3 Mentor & MTN West Africa Project Fame has finally decided to shut its doors to Bullhaus Entertainment.

Nii, formerly known as Joe confirmed to us he has walked out on his record label following a statement made by his manager, Bulldog that he was a failure and joke.

“This whole thing started when I had a deal to perform at the last ended MTN Project Fame that had Kesse and Christian representing Ghana. I was the middle man instead of Bulldog", he said on phone.

The organizers knew me and where dealing with me directly which was very wrong because I had a manager who was Bulldog, who was supposed to be taking up that. I also left to perform at the finals of the show without Bulldog knowing about it”, he said.

“When I came back I was under suspension because I knew what I did was wrong”, he continued.

The star recollects to us that during one of their managerial meetings after he came back from Nigeria. Bulldog fumed out that the Bullhaus Entertainment label doesn't associate themselves with failures but I am a joke and a failure.

“Initially I thought because he was angry and mad that’s how come those statements came out and I was still willingly to go back and say sorry because I knew what I did was wrong. But anytime I called him on phone, he rather referred me to talk to an artiste on the label called Rafiki who will then deliver my messages to him. If he meant all this, then I don’t think he still wants me”, Nii said.

Nii offered no hints at his future plans. “I have been advised by musicians like Kojo Antwi to take a long break. My last performance was at the TV3 Ghana Most Beautiful finals”, he said in a statement.

Bullhaus Entertainment catalog again became full when IWAN announced at the 4Stye Music Awards that the whole family is back again with a rousing performance by 5Five. Bullhaus Entertainment was made up of IWAN, 5Five, Natural Face and Rafiki.

5Five, formerly also had a rift with Bulldog over allocation of funds to them but have now squashed it and are back as a family.
