US Court Ban Burna Boy From Performing In U.S And Canada .


A US Supreme Federal Court in NewYork has given an injunction against the American -Born Nigerian  musician Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu popularly known as BurnaBoy.
The injunction prevents him from performing at any event venue or any form of recording anywhere in USA & Canada for the time being unless he settles with the New York-based promotion company, Vibesland Entertainment LLC, founded by promoter/producer, Niyi Fatogun.
He was sued in the Federal Court by Vibesland Entertainment LLC, on allegations that he signed a contract for 2016 USA & Canada Tour, failed to turn up, postponed the tour which put the promoter Vibesland Entertainment, LLC, in serious debt in the United States.
Burna Boy is an independent artist signed under the Burna Boy Ltd and released his OAS LP under Spaceship Entertainment label that presently holds the copyright to all his music.
The issue started after the promoter, Vibesland Entertainment LLC, obtained USA Work Permit approval visa for Burna Boy, then Burna Boy failed to honour the contractual agreement.
Vibesland Entertainment LLC, was said to have invested up to $25,000 US Dollars in preparation and facilitating the tour.
The promoter, Niyi Fatogun, hired professional entertainment lawyer, Takena Barango to represent Vibesland Entertainment, LLC, on Wednesday May 17th, 2017, at the Supreme Court in New York.
The judge ordered a court injunction on Burna Boy outside US Tour, until Burna Boy Ltd settles the promoter for the financial loss Vibesland Entertainment, LLC, suffered due to breach of trust.

This is not the first time the artist is having issues with the New York authorities. It was said that Bruna Boy has been having issues with the American authorities long before he moved down (deported) to Nigeria.
