The Afrobeats star made the announcement during an interview with Naija 102 FM, where he dismissed recent rumours surrounding Fola’s affiliation with the label. “Fola is signed under Dangbana Republik; he’s with us, we’re family,” Bella said with pride.

According to him, Fola’s signing is not just a business move but a reward for a long-standing connection that spans over four years. The Cash App crooner revealed that Fola had been working with the team behind the scenes before making the relationship official.

“I’ve known Fola for over four years. He’s been with Dangbana Republik, always working with us. One day, I just decided with my team that it was time to support this boy in our own way. And to God be the glory, that little support turned into something big,” he shared, reflecting on the artist’s journey.

Under Dangbana Republik, Fola will enjoy full creative liberty while receiving structured professional guidance.

Bella emphasised that his goal is to protect Fola’s artistry and ensure he stays true to his vision. “It’s about putting him on the right path, protecting his craft, and making sure he has liberty with his creativity,” he noted.

Fola, who has already made waves through his feature on Dangbana Riddim and his hit single Alone featuring Bhadboi OML, is expected to bring a fresh wave of energy to the label’s roster.

Expressing gratitude and excitement, Bella concluded, “I thank God for giving me that instinct to move forward with what I believe in. I’m happy, the team is happy, and Fola himself is happy — everybody’s happy.”
