LAGOS, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) –Music executive and founder of Kennis Music, Kenny Ogungbe, has disclosed that his label was interested in signing Plantashun Boiz before 2Baba launched his solo career.
In a chat with Osi Suave, the media personality, Ogungbe revealed that he offered a contract to Blackface, a member of the now-defunct group after they collaborated with Tony Tetuila.
He said the deal, however, never materialised.

Ogungbe explained that 2Baba expressed his desire to pursue a solo career, which he fully supported.
“2Face is a brother, but first of all, a contract was given to Plantashun Boiz because of their involvement with Tony Tetuila on the album ‘Omode Meta Shere’. I said, let me try to see if I can sign them,” he said.
“I gave Austin (Blackface) the contract, but nothing happened. After a while, 2Face called me and said he wanted to be on his own. I said, no problem.”
Ogungbe addressed claims that he played a role in the breakup of Plantashun Boiz.
He clarified that 2Baba’s decision to embark on a solo career was entirely his own.
