The ‘Gongo Aso’ crooner, 9ice is the latest artiste to join Temple Management Company. He has joined artistes like Iyanya, King Sunny Ade to put his career in the hands of the highly respected firm.
The deal was signed in Lagos last week and the company claimed it saw in 9ice, a solid foundation which can be expanded upon and they believe they can help him get to the next level of his career.
9ice had this to say:
For me, this is the right thing to do at this stage in my career and indeed for any forward thinking artiste. When we started music, we grew with the knowledge that everything was all about the artiste; you are the manager, owner of the record label etc. We did this to the best of our ability.
This is the time to give experienced professionals the chance to take care of you because one will become the better for it. Temple Management are like our own Sony or BMG in Nigeria. Any artiste who plans to grow need to work with the right people such as Temple Management Company
We all can’t help but admit 9ice needs to re-brand himself if he wishes to fan the dying flames of his career. This looks like a good move on his part and we look forward to better material from him.
