Singer Michael Olayinka, popularly known as Ruger, has denounced loyalty to “some godfather,” saying this year is about himself.
The 24-year-old made the declaration days after exiting Jonzing World Records owned by Don Jazzy’s younger brother, D’Prince.
In a new freestyle titled ‘Blownboy’ released under his self-owned label, Blown Boy Entertainment, the singer officially denounced godfatherism, asserting himself as his new boss.
“I denounce every loyalty to some godfather, this year I’m about me,” he sang in the freestyle video posted on his YouTube page on Friday.
