Heavy-D speaks out, recommends rehab for Gully Bop
After opening the first major platform to Gully Bop at Sting 2014 in an effortto solidify the viral sensation as a true recording artiste and performer, Heavy-D Promotions has severed all ties.
In a media release, Heavy-DPromotions sought to explain the decision.
“Gully Bop is out of control and is making it impossible to work with. He is not listening to me, Chin or anybody else. He does not want any agent fees or expenses to be deducted from income received,” Promoter Heavy D stated.
“Bop doesn’t understand the business at all and believes that whatever he makes is for him, his woman and to give away to poor people in the street. How the bills are gonna be paid then? There are expenses for every tour,” Heavy D added.
Heavy-D continued to explain that he has to be working overtime to cover seriously damaging statements and actions by the artiste.
“He must cease and desist from making all damaging remarks. We collect only 20% as agreed for bookings and management. Legal action will be taken to ensure that this behavior does not continue,” he said adding that he recommends that Gully Bop seeks professional help.
“I wish nothing but the best for Bop. I try my best to help him and resolve all issues, but it seems to make no sense. Sometimes I feel like we have another Whitney Houston case on our hands. Bop needs rehab and this is no joke.”
Heavy-D Promotions would like to assure all promoters and the public that all engagements that they booked for Gully Bop should be honored by the artiste as all deposits have already been paid over to his fiancée, Miss Shauna Chin.
“Every show we book we take our agent fees and pay over the balance to Chin so all shows should be still on. She is also in a very sticky position, but I understand that she have to stand beside him cause they live together right now.”
