Below is the letter 1976AD wrote to D'banj for changing his twitter handle from Dapo 'D'banj' Oyebanjo to Daniel 'D'banj' Banjo:
Dear D’Banj,
I love your work, I really do, I think you’re one of the greatest musicians of your generation, but I must say, your new affiliation with G.O.O.D music seems to be getting to your head.
For years you’ve been known by your official name, Dapo Oyebanjo, even using it as part of your twitter handle. Well all good things come to an end, and your affiliation with your new label seems to have brought that particular chapter of your life to an untimely conclusion.
D’Banj you’ve now gone from ‘Dapo Oyebanjo’ to ‘Daniel Banjo’. All I can do is laugh, I mean, Daniel ‘Banjo‘ ? What are you, a country music star from Nashville?
PLEASE LEAVE D'BANJ ALONE!
I wonder myself
ReplyDeleteD'banj too mess up.Why should he just change his African name???
ReplyDeleteI really think anyone has a right to change names.After all Cacius Clay changed his name to Mohammed Ali.
