The management of Mohbad, the late singer, says he was taking legal action against Marlian Records to retrieve his unpaid royalties before his death.
Mohbad passed away on Tuesday and was laid to rest on Wednesday.
In a statement, his management extended their appreciation to the general public for the well-wishes.
It said it will continue to “fight to retrieve his catalogue and unpaid royalties.”
“We appreciate the outpouring of love from the general public following the passing of Mohbad,” the statement reads.
“The circumstances surrounding his death are truly painful and we are open to provide any cooperation necessary to the authorities to carry out any investigations.
“Right now, we are focused on making sure the legacy of Mohbad lives on and he is remembered as he was in his final months; Free, strong and fighting for his future.
“Before his passing Mohbad was in court to retrieve the majority of his songs and unpaid royalties which were wrongfully held by Marlian Music.
“We will continue the fight to retrieve his catalogue and unpaid royalties so that through these, those he left behind, especially his son; Liam Imole, will be provided for.
“We want justice for Mohbad, and we will appreciate all the support we can get in this fight to retrieve his catalogue from Marlian Music, as this is the justice that Mohbad was working towards.”
Mohbad is a former artiste of Marlian Records, which is owned by Naira Marley.
In October 2022, he alleged assault by the record label’s head honcho.
The singer would later terminate his contract with Marlian Records after a protracted controversy.
