Dancehall singer, Timaya has revealed why he failed to sign Patoranking and Runtown to his Dem Mama record label despite giving them their first breaks in the Nigerian entertainment industry.

Speaking in a chat with Beat FM, the talented singer noted that he didn’t have a clear grasp of the music business when Patoranking and Runtown were under his wings.

“I did not understand the business then,” Timaya said.

“I don’t want anybody to be like they are doing it because they are not in a good spot.

“Whatever I did for them, I did it like ‘okay, let’s go.”

The Dem Mama boss said he does not regret signing the pair, notwithstanding their individual achievements in the past few years.

Asked if he would consider signing them to his record label, he said: “They are bosses already.”

On how he make hit songs, Timaya owes his success to God, saying : “Nobody knows how to make hits.

“I don’t even know. I think it’s just God and secondly, when you work all the time, you have a lot of songs, you need the right people around you to tell you the right songs to put out so I don’t feed myself with bad energy.”
