He denied ever having such a conversation with him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve never seen his call, I have never seen his messages and all that, so what he is talking about, I have no idea about. I don\u2019t know the management he contacted but he never contacted me,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Bullet, who is also a member of the hiplife duo Ruff N Smooth, was of the opinion that after a hiatus in his musical career, Zigi was only rising on Ebony\u2019s fame by creating controversy in order to bounce back.<\/p>\n<p>He also stated, he did not see anything wrong with an artiste demanding for payment to feature on any song.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2026and I don\u2019t see [anything] wrong with an artiste charging for [a feature] because in Ghana we don\u2019t even take royalties,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n<p>Bullet revealed that in any case, GH?7000 to feature the \u201890\u2019s Bad Gurl\u2019 on a song was quite chicken change as he would have been charged more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven GH?7000 for Ebony for [a feature], that is even peanuts. Ebony charges between GH?30,000 for featuring. So if the person mentioned GH?7000, then it means the person wanted to do for free.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bullet declared that even if Zigi contacted him appropriately, he was not going to allow for the collaboration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am never going to allow Ebony to do a song with him, because what he is trying to do, he just wants to make noise and grab attention,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 65 updated by: 3 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Tuesday, 16 January 2018 Source: Myjoyonline.com 2018-01-16 Manager of Ebony, Bullet revealed that he had never been contacted by Zigi The management of dancehall act Ebony, have denied claims by musician Zigi that they demanded GHC7000 for a feature on the remix of his song \u2018You Sey Wetin\u2019.
