It was a sad and dark day for the Nigerian music industry when Don Jazzy and D’banj parted ways. The entire continent was in shock when on May 8 2012, Don Jazzy uttered these words - “The way forward now is to make sure I keep bringing you guys more of the beautiful music you all love to dance to” and in the process, officially launched a collective of some of Nigeria’s greatest artists and producers – Mavin Records.
Just like yesterday but it’s been a year now and Don Jazzy‘s project “Mavin” is waxing stronger and stronger. It may not be as big as the former “Mo’Hits” YET; but they are definitely one of the big names to reckon with in the industry.

It has been a tough and arduous journey for the Mavins this first year of their existence, but so also, has it been a fruitful one. Nonetheless, having released their ever full-length album, D’Prince‘s “Frenzy” is certainly an accolade for them.....source by karinagk.blogspot
