Since his emergence on the scene a few years back, this week is the first time ever singer Dammy Krane, became a hot topic on all social media platform and this is due to his arrest for credit card fraud and grand theft in far away US.
On how his troubles started, a source close to the embattled artiste said it all began after his expulsion from Tuface’s Hypertek records.
According to a source close to the singer who spoke with Saturday Beats, Dammy Krane, was kicked out of the label about two years ago and has since then found it extremely difficult to revive his dying career as he searched helplessly for sponsors, who were nowhere to be found. This new development caused him to travel to the US in hopes of finally reigniting whatever fire is left of his career.
On why Tuface ended his contract with the label and why it was a quiet affair:
“Dammy Krane had left Tuface`s Hypertek record since February 2015. Tuface is trying to build a reputable company and they do not want any negative news. That is why they did not announce his exit from the label. They had issues with him over the way he was doing collaborations with other artistes. It was not part of the contract that he signed, so technically it is a breach of contract. They gave him several warnings which he did not adhere to, so they had no choice but to terminate the contract that they had with him. They did not make any noise about it because they did not want anything that would dent his image and that of the company. He was in the US to get new investor to help his career and also shoot some videos because he already had new material. He was also meant to use the opportunity to embark on his US tour,” the source said.
