Singer, Ayoleyi Solomon, popularly known as Reekedo Banks has announced
his departure from Mavin Records, a music company owned by Don
Jazzy. Announcing his departure on Instagram today, the singer who
celebrated his 25th birthday on Thursday, thanked Don Jazzy for the
opportunity he gave him when he signed with the record label in 2013
along side Korede Bello and Di'ja. In his words;“Today I write in tears,
not from a place of pain, but of joy and gratitude. A place of bliss
and satisfaction because I am more than contented with how far this
opportunity has brought me. The last five years have been the most
blissful years of my career. The journey has been extremely wonderful
and filled with the best experiences.“I’ve learnt that family is not
just about blood ties but about the love, sacrifices and friendship that
exist amongst its members. The relationships I have fostered has proved
to me that love is thicker than blood.Joining the @mavinrecords family
was the best thing to have happened to me in the last decade. @donjazzy
took me in and treated me like his own son. I'll be eternally grateful
to him for sacrifices he made towards the growth of my career.“His
selflessness and efforts towards me and the entire Mavin crew is one
that is admirable and worthy of emulation. A true KING with a large
heart, full of kindness and ready to accommodate even more people. And
to the rest of the crew, Our family is a clear example of the saying,
'We rise by lifting others'.Thank you all for all the times you've
lifted me at my lowest moments, for the support, the amazing hits and
most especially, the LOVE. Taking this bold step and moving on from
Mavin Records onto bigger opportunities is something that, though not
easy, is absolutely necessary because of my growth. I am very ecstatic
about what the future holds and I cannot wait to share with everyone
what new opportunities have come. Long Live Mavin Records.”
