Music producer, Dr Roy, has clarified that gospel music minister, Mercy Chinwo, was not aware that the record label boss they both once worked for, treated him unfairly.
Dr Roy, a former producer with Eezee Concept Records, owned by Ezekiel ThankGod, aka EeZee Tee, made this known during an interview streamed on Monday on The Honest Bunch Podcast with on-air-personality, Nedu Ani, and others.
He accused EeZee Tee of maltreatment, saying the record label boss withheld his financial gains after he produced ‘Excess Love’ and other hit tracks of Mercy Chinwo who was signed by the record label some seven years ago.
Dr Roy said, “For the onset, Mercy did not know what was happening. I don’t know what made Mercy leave but I won’t be surprised if what happened to me also happened to Mercy Chinwo too.
“For Mercy’s sake, I don’t know how he (EeZee Tee) has painted me before her so I didn’t let her know the maltreatment.”
He added that someone close to him, “reached out to Mercy that my father had died. Mercy then called me, sent me money, and sent money to my mother. She said she did not know that my father was sick. She even did not know what I was facing under him (EeZee Tee).”
The music producer also released a video on his Instagram page further clarifying what he said on the podcast.
“I deeply respect her talent and character. My remarks were aimed at the record label owner I worked for. Mercy Chinwo helped me when my father had a stroke, she helped me when he died,” he stated.
He also said it was not true that Mercy Chinwo refused to assist him at any point.
Dr Roy and Mercy Chinwo once worked under Eezee Concept Records before the two of them left the record label over allegations of unfair treatment.
