M.I is Not Interested Becoming An International Figure Chocolate City Music boss, M.I Abaga is very
reluctant to replicate his success outside
Nigeria.
He may have opened the door of success to
artistes like Ice Prince, Jesse Jagz and Ice
Prince and more, but he doesn’t really finding
that easy working with some of them.
MI said “I’m very weird about the
international thing. I’m not interested at all.
I’m interested in building Africa and building
in Nigeria.
I think in that way, the biggest thing we can do
internationally is to set up our businesses and
our industry right here. America is very funny.
You know I had the opportunity.”
He reveals the most difficult person to work with
“Ice Prince is the easiest but also the most
difficult person. He’s so opinionated and he
knows what he wants and he is a go-getter which
makes it easy but also difficult because you are
always catching up when you meet him again.
He’s always on to the next thing and his zeal is
something that has been apparent since he was 16
and 17 in Jos.
You know you could always see he was going to be a
big star and conquer Africa and the world as he
has done is doing.”
He added “Jesse has his own label under
Chocolate City same with Ice Prince. We are going
to open few more labels like that and you are
going to hear less of Chocolate City even though
we’ll be doing more business.”
