The Nigerian music producer refused the offer since King Sunny Ade was already a client and his fees were more than N50,000.
However, once Kizz Daniel rose to fame, the two continued to work together on a number of tracks. During a recent interview with MTV Base Africa, Philkeys revealed this.
“Kizz Daniel reached out to me. He was not signed then. He told me that he had a certain amount of money, I think N50k, that he wanted to work with me.
“But my charges don pass N50k by that time wey I come dey work for Sunny Ade. That time I be big boy. I was like, ‘No o, I’m not doing.’
“I was gonna see if he was going to call me back but he didn’t call me back, so we just allowed that part to slide. Then, when he blew up, he called me back saying that he wanted to work with me,” he said.
