“I was introduced to drugs by Naira Marley’s label” — Former Mohbad label mate, Fabian Blu

After his contract with Naira Marley’s label expired in 2022, Fabian Blu disappeared from the public space after releasing four singles under Marlian Records. 

He is speaking for the first time to the media about his time at the label and royalties over the past five years that he says he is owed. He says he has not been paid a penny and when he threatened to sue them to court, Naira Marley laughed in his face. 

He tells me about the suffering and punishments he said endured during his time under the label—how he was called a lazy artist and sidelined because he wasn’t Yoruba or Muslim. How he was maltreated in the accommodation provided, marched out of the studio and ignored when he asked for help for his mother. 

He says he was introduced to drugs after signing with Marlian Music and to a dangerous lifestyle that he has to escape from. 

Then I ask him: Why did he reach out to me to speak out just now, when Naira Marley is making a comeback with his music?

Hear him tell his story exclusively on withChude.com right away and on @WithChude YouTube at 5pm today.
