D’banj and Wande Coal perform together on same stage since D’banj parted ways with the Mo’hits label in 2012 and Wande leaving Mavin Records in 2013.
They shared the stage on Sunday October 2, 2016 at the 20th anniversary event of Tee A comedian who was celebrating 20 years of stand-up comedy.
The dinner concert was held at the Intercontinental Hotel Lagos where the former Mo’hits singers graced the occasion for the comedian performing their group song ‘Close to you’ off the Mo’hits compilation album “Curriculum Vitae” released in 2007 and boasts of other classic hit singles such as ‘Pere’, ‘Why me’ remix, ‘Ololufe’, ‘Booty call’ and ‘Move your body’.
Since leaving Mo’hits, both singers have gone on to have relative successes.
Following his “Mushin to Mo’hits” album released under the Mo’hits label and the fallout between record label Executives Don Jazzy and D’banj, in 2012, Wande Coal, Dr Sid and D’Prince signed on to Don Jazzy’s new Record Label Mavin Records with the addition of Tiwa Savage from 323 entertainment assuming the position of first lady at Mavin records.
Wande Coal eventually left Mavin Records in 2013 which saw him release his sophomore album “Wanted” in 2015 under self owned Black Diamond Entertainment.
D’banj on the other hand joined forces with Kanye West’s ”G.O.O.D” music label, seeking for international exposure, which Don Jazzy did not totally sign up to, although he equally signed to the label with D’banj.
The pair got signed to the label in 2011 but saw D’banj not releasing a body of work under the label. He officially was announced as not being under the label in a tweet by the G.O.O.D music label.
D’banj released three album under Mo’hits – “No Long Thing” (2005), “Rundown Funk U Up” (2006) and “The Entertainer” (2008).
