Ace music producer and leader of Supreme Mavin Dynasty, Michael Collins (Don Jazzy) has hailed his former business partner,  Dapo Oyebanjo (D’banj) for the feat recorded at the 2015 MTV Africa Music Awards (MAMA) held in South Africa, describing him as the baddest entertainer he knows.

Don Jazzy was reacting to the MAMA Evolution awards won by D’banj, which theKokomaster dedicated to the Doroboss. The Evolution awards is a new category honouring established artists who have made an indelible mark on African and global music culture.

“Shout out to the baddest entertainer we  know on the MAMA EVOLUTION AWARD. Thanks 4 the dedication bro @Iamdbanj,” Don Jazzy posted on his Twitter handle.

Don Jazzy and D’banj established the successful Mo’Hits Records in 2004 which brought to limelight music stars like D’banj, Wande Coal, Dr. Sid, D’Prince and K-Switch.

The first album released by the label was D’banj’s No Long Thing in 2005. Other albums are Rundown & The Entertainer (D’banj), Mushin2Mohits (Wande Coal) & Turning Point (Dr SID).

The label has also attracted foreign interest from international acts like Kanye West, Snoop Dogg and Jay-Z

However, the musical marriage  between D’Banj and Don Jazzy ended on a sour note in 2012.

Mavins boss, Don Jazzy has opened up about his dislike for speaking on stage or addressing a crowd to give speeches.

Reacting to questions from fans on Twitters, one of which was why he forgot to acknowledge the brilliance of one of the artistes on his label, Afro’Dija, Don Jazzy quickly revealed that though it was a mistake on his part, Dija knows better and understands.

‘See Ehn I hate talking on stage oooo. I forgot. She understands,’ he wrote.
Meanwhile, the music producer cum singer surprised many when he sent a shoutout to his erstwhile partner and buddy, D’Banj after emerging the winner of the 2015 MAMA Evolution Award.

Interestingly, his monster hit which features all the music acts on the Supreme Mavins Dynasty,Dorobucci won the song of the year at the awards ceremony.
