Di’Ja Sets The Record Straight On Mavin Records Departure Saga

Singer Addresses Rumors And Expresses Support For Rising Star Tems

The Nigerian music industry has been abuzz with speculation regarding singer Hadiza Blell, popularly known as Di’Ja, and her alleged sudden exit from Don Jazzy’s Mavin Records. Contrary to the swirling rumors, Di’Ja has taken a stand to clarify her status with the record label and to set the record straight.

Responding to a fan’s query on social media, which speculated that she could have achieved even greater success than rising star Tems had she stayed with Mavin Records, Di’Ja emphatically stated that she never left the label. She expressed her gratitude for the love and support she has received and took the opportunity to extend her best wishes to Tems, stating, “God bless Tems, and I need her to get bigger.”

Di’Ja signed with Mavin Records in February 2014 and quickly became a household name in Nigeria. During her time with the label, she collaborated with other Mavin artists on popular songs like “Dorobucci”, “Adaobi”, “Looku Looku”, and “Arise”. Born to a Northern Nigerian mother and a Sierra Leonean father, Di’Ja has lived in various countries, including Nigeria, Sierra Leone, the United States, and Canada.

While Di’Ja did not delve into specific details, she hinted at personal and professional growth and other life events that have occupied her time. This suggests that her reduced visibility in the music scene may have been a result of focusing on other aspects of her life, rather than a fallout with Mavin Records.

In her statement, Di’Ja also took a moment to express her support for Tems, a rising Nigerian singer who has been gaining international recognition. This gesture is seen as a significant show of solidarity in an industry where competition can often lead to rivalry.
