Kelly Hansome Has Not Signed Any Contract with Kennis Music

Kennis Music has clarified that although Kelly Hansome, one of its ex-acts, has apologized and reconciliation moves have been brokered, the musician is yet to sign any deal with the music label. Kelly Hansome shot to limelight with his ‘Maga don Pay’ single which was released on Kennis Music label. However, the musician parted ways with the label in an unpleasant circumstance and has since taken swipes at the Mo’ Hits crew, Chocolate City boys (M.I and co), Terry G, and Kennis Music.

Kenny Ogungbe, the CEO of Kennis Music said in a recent interview that the label does not promote hate songs, and as such not the one promoting Kelly Hansome’s diss tracks.
