Timaya: I can't end my career for Patoranking

Dem mama record boss Timaya still feels heartbroken about Patoranking’s exit from his label.
The pop star spoke with NET at the Star Music Trek 2014 unveiling on Wednesday, March 19, 2014. When asked about his relationship with Patoranking, Timaya got agitated and replied

‘Am bigger than one guy level, I don’t want to leave my career to push his career, he is on another p, I put him somewhere else, I don’t have issues with Patoranking, I handled him first, paid for his Alubarika’s video’.

Meanwhile he told our correspondent that his collaboration with Sean Paul on Watta Bam Bam remix, which was shot three weeks ago in Miami US, will be dropping mid-week.
Patoranking hooked up with Timaya in 2012 and is believed to have signed with Dem Mama Records. He also began working with the label’s manager Prince Oluzor.

In mid-2013, Dem Mama Records released Patoranking’s official debut single titled ‘Alubarika‘ and shortly dropped a video for it in August. It is however unclear who has been funding Patoranking’s project. ’Alubarika‘has been quite successful in Nigeria and Malaysia.
