Social media went abuzz during the week with the news that
rapper, Ice Prince, turned down a mouth watering deal offered him by
telecommunication Giant, Globacom.
Rumours said the rapper demanded for $1m or no deal when he was
approached with the offer.
It was said that the telecommunication company
decided to make him its latest brand ambassador because of his recent
successes, his many local and international awards, and his bestselling debut
album, ‘Everybody Loves Ice Prince,’ in 2011.
However, the rapper’s label, Chocolate City, dismissed reports
suggesting that he turned down an endorsement deal.
His business manager, Tobi Sanni-Daniel, said, “We were just as
surprised as anybody when we read the news of Ice Prince ‘purportedly’
turning down ‘the offer’, especially since it isn’t true.
Globacom is a multi-national company with an excellent record of
accomplishment. Any individual would be proud and honoured to be associated
with them.
“To say that we have turned down an endorsement deal is false
and completely baseless. Ice Prince has recently been busy in the studio as he
gears towards a highly anticipated album later in the year.
He has released a remix to the hugely successful ‘Aboki’ and a
video for ‘Truth’, which has already gone viral online.”
