The collapse of Mo’Hits Records. One of the greatest shocker in Afrobeat till date.

Mo’Hits Records (popularly called Mo’Hits) was arguably the hottest music record label in Nigeria back then.

According to Nigeria’s Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), Mo’Hits Records Limited was founded in 2006, signing D’banj as its first recording artist.

Don Jazzy was the CEO/President of the label and D’banj was the Co-Owner. The label went on to sign other artists including Wande Coal, Dr SID, D’Prince and K-Switch. The label specialized in Afrobeat.

It should be noted that trouble started within this famous group after Dbanj and Don Jazzy were signed to American rapper/producer, Kanye West’s Good Music label in 2010.

In 2015, Dbanj spilled the beans on why Mohits broke up. He said Don Jazzy expressed his discomfort with staying in New York and leveraging their new contracts when they could remain in Nigeria where they were “already bosses.”

According to Dbanj, Jazzy remained unconvinced and eventually sought to dissolve their partnership.

Dbanj said things came to a head at a general meeting in 2011, where the entire Mo’hits crew, including his own brother, K-Switch decided they did not want to work with him any longer.

The crew then was made up of Dbanj and his brother K-Switch; Don Jazzy and his brother, D’Prince; crooner, Wande Coal and Dr Sid.
