Restless Talent says in no way did Tee Billz inspire the recent deal between Dumas and themselves.

Just some few days ago, Tee Billz (husband of Tiwa Savage), lashed out on Ghanaian actress Joselyn Dumas and her management team, Restless Talent, accusing them for lacking the basic understanding of branding.

According to report, soon after his post, NET contacted Joselyn Dumas’ management team to listen to their side of the accusations made by Tee Billz.

According to Restless Talent, when Tee Billz told them his artist was inspired by Joselyn and was making a song about her, they thought it was going to be an inspirational song but the lyrics in the song turned out to be “useless and silly”.

"Last week, we noticed that photos of Joselyn had been altered and being used to promote a song by Tee Billz. Those photos were used without permission, we didn’t know about it, so we contacted him, wrote him officially to take it down", they said.

He had no intentions of taking the photos down until we contacted him. So we said to him, write us properly to ask for permission to use those photos and then send us the song so we know what the song says because he said his artiste was inspired by Joselyn.

So we were waiting to hear a song of inspiration, but when he sent the song, the lyrics of the song was basically about Joselyn’s body and how he’ll give her money and she’ll give him her body, so we said to him that we can’t associate our brand with those kind of useless and silly lyrics. So we said to him, we are sorry, we can’t do that and he apologized.

It’s also our style to announce any new deal we sign one month after the deal. We signed Joselyn one month ago and we just announced it this week, it’s the same thing we’ve done for others like OC Ukeje, Nse Ikpe Etim and others, so I really don’t understand what he’s talking about when he said he’ll teach us about branding. We never even knew who he was until this whole thing happened.”
