Johnny Drille reveals Don Jazzy took huge risk signing him
Johnny Drille, the sensational singer, just spilled the tea on how tough it was to get a record deal. He revealed that two major labels pressured him to change his unique sound, but he stood his ground and stayed true to his style. The Mavin Records boss, Don Jazzy, took a huge risk by signing him, mostly because he was a fan, not for quick profit.
Drille admitted that no one expected Mavin, known for mainstream hits, to back an alternative artist like him—it was seen as a gamble. But Jazzy didn’t ask him to “dance” or “speed up” his music; he just believed in the sound.
