MohBad: Meet 8 Artistes Signed By Marlian Records
Marlian Records is owned by street-hop artiste, Azeez Fashola, popularly known as Naira Marley.
It was founded in December 2019 and has since expanded to include numerous additional artistes in its fold.
Getting signed by a record label these days is tough, a lot of young talents perish because there’s no one to groom and sponsor their music careers.
Fortunately, the CEO of Marlian Music, Naira Marley, has opened the door for young and upcoming musicians to join his record label.
But, with controversy recently surrounding the death of one of its former artistes, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, better known as MohBad, the fate of the record label remains unknown for now as accusing fingers were being pointed at Naira Marley, among others.
The reasons are not farfetched. MohBad was previously signed to Naira Marley’s Marlian Records before his departure in 2022 under controversial circumstances.
Tragically, he passed away on Tuesday, September 12, 2023, at the young age of 27, allegedly due to violence and bullying from his former record label.
Hereunder is a list of artists who are signed to Marlian Records:
Naira Marley: Azeez Adeshina Fashola, known professionally as Naira Marley, is the founder of the Marlian Records label. He doubles as the CEO and artist in Marlian Records.
He announced the founding of the record label on December 30, 2019, during his Marlian Fest concert at Eko Hotel and Suite in Lagos.
Zinoleesky: Oniyide Azeez, popularly known as Zinoleesky, is a Nigerian songwriter, singer, and rapper born on April 21, 2000.

Fabian Blu: Inim Fabian, also known as Fabian Blu, hails from Akwa Ibom State.
He was among the four members that got signed to Marlian Music in 2019.
Some months after his signing, Fabian Blu, 25, called out Marlian Music on social media for not promoting him as much as they were promoting his label mate Zinoleesky.
Whether he exited the label or not is unknown to the public because neither Fabian nor Marlian Music confirmed any contract termination.
Tori Keeche: On August 23, 2020, Tori Keeche was announced as the first female artist signed to Marlian Music.
Vusic: Vusic signed to Marlian Records in June 2023. Vusic was born in Lagos, Nigeria.
