Ghanaian music producer JMJ
Ghanaian music producer JMJ has denied allegations of extortion and greed levelled against him by musician Jah Lead.
Jah Lead had earlier accused JMJ in an interview on Hitz FM of profiting from the song at his expense, blocking it from some streaming platforms, among others.
However, in a recent interview on Hitz FM on April 18, 2025, JMJ refuted the claims, stating that he did not receive even a pesewa from the song, despite producing the beat and contributing to its promotion.
“There is no song out there that is in my name. I am even making 5 cedis from it… He is rather using my beat freely. I didn’t receive a dime from the song. All I wanted to do was to see my brother get a hit song and spark his career… I don’t even manage the song,” he said.
JMJ added that despite Jah Lead recently lashing out at him over the proceeds of the song and even threatening to physically assault him, he has decided not to take legal action.
“I was on my way home when my family called me that a police officer wanted to beat me… Then my lawyer called me based on the video, and he told me to make a case out of it. But I released that this would cost Jah Lead because that wasn’t what I wanted for him.
“Despite our feud, I even gave him a gig in Jamaica, and he didn’t even know because at that point he wasn’t on good terms with me,” he added.
