Promise Aloba, mother of late rap star, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, better known as Mohbad, says she has not received any of her son’s royalties.
According to the grieving woman, none of Mohbad’s business allies and associates had visited the family to discuss about the money made from the huge streaming of his songs and albums after his death.
Mrs Aloba made this revelation in an interview with The Punch, clarifying that she knows nothing about such earnings he’s expected to get.
She said; “I don’t know anything about royalties. Naira Marley asked him (Mohbad) to attend shows, but he was scared. He called me, and I begged him, that the show was from Sam Larry. Nobody has talked to me about his royalties.”
Mohbad’s songs became so popular after his death that he gained billboard recognition. He was featured alongside several international music stars on the Billboard Hot Trending Songs Powered by X Chart for the September 23, 2023 week.
