Don Jazzy signs Tiwa Savage, launches new label

Michael Collins popularly called Don Jazzy took to micro blog Twitter to announce his new record label Mavin in the early hours of May 6, 2012.

Jazzy, who suffered a ‘broken marriage’ with his Mo-Hit partner D’banj some months ago has broken his silence with an obvious effort to prove his competence to music lovers.

And here’s the coup: a Tiwa Savage signing. The gifted songwriter cum singer will now join Wande Coal, Dr SID, D’Prince to call Mavin home.

‘Hey people. need your help on this one once again. pls help me tell a friend to tell a friend. #MavinRecords God bless’ Don Jazzy wrote on Twitter.

Before now, Tiwa Savage was signed on Cecil Hammond’s Flytime. How did the signing happen? What are the deal particulars? No one knows for now, and we’re working to get comments from Hammond, Jazzy and Tiwa’s manager Tunji Balogun.

The new label now rests all speculation that Jazzy would continue to use the Mo’Hits brand name.

Meanwhile, Mavin’s first product, a compilation album already titled ‘Solar Plexus’ is due for release tomorrow – six days before the UK release of D’banj’s debut international single ‘Oliver’.
