Abbas Says K-Nel Tried Swindling Artistes by Claiming He’s a CEO

Abbas appeared on Homeboyz Radio to release his new single but the subject of his latest beef with K-Nel could not be ignored.

Besides explaining how it all started, he also accused the rapper, music promoter and entrepreneur of fraud. “K-Nel was trying to say he was CEO of Phoenix (Records) and telling artistes he is going to sign them.”

According to Abbas, he was trying to convince the artistes that through MCSK, he will market their music in Germany. He further clarified that even if that were true, one would have to clear with the German copyright body and not MCSK. “These are the type of people we are trying to avoid. I’m trying to make people aware.”

It was a beef that emerged right after Abbas’ return from his German tour a couple of months ago. On the same night that he returned, he was to perform at K-Nel’s Hip Hop Slamdown show, for which Abbas says he hasn’t been paid.
