On Wednesday, May 4, 2022, Mavin Records CEO Don Jazzy responded to trolls who criticize other musicians with a series of tweets.
This happened after trolls contrasted two influential musicians (Fireboy DML and Rema) and minimized their accomplishments and contributions.
Don Jazzy reacted to Twitter to condemn such behavior, stating that his record label, Mavin Records, does not promote or encourage such behavior. He went on to say that Rema and his other musicians are primarily concerned with creating music that people would appreciate.
Don Jazzy said on Twitter:
If ur only way to support Mavin is by hating on or downplaying a colleagues hustle & success, then pls keep ur support to yourself. I know some of u derive pleasure from that shit, but that’s not the Mavin way. We go manage our little fan base that’s genuinely happy for others.
He also addressed the question of him not speaking up about the comparison of Rema to senior artists and he stated;
I did interviews addressing it sir. And my team internally knows not to participate in such unprogressive manner. Hoping that one day the fans will learn from our body language and stop. But it seems to be getting worst by the day.
Don Jazzy was firm that an artist's work should not be ridiculed but rather enjoyed.
