According to ID Cabasa, the main factors contributing to the conflict between him and 9ice include Cabasa’s decision to carry on working with Toni Seun Payne, his ex-wife. These are the main ideas:
ID Cabasa made the decision to continue collaborating with Toni Payne in his musical endeavours after the couple, 9ice and Toni Payne, divorced. Payne had a hand in managing the likes of 9ice and Olamide who were signed to Cabasa’s Coded Tunes Record.
9ice disagreed with ID Cabasa’s choice to continue working with Toni Payne even after their divorce. This choice appeared to irritate 9ice.
Zion, their 2008-born child, was the main reason ID Cabasa decided to keep Toni Payne on his squad, he said. Cabasa was worried about the interaction between 9ice and his kid, Zion. Toni Payne was someone he kept close because he wanted to make sure that 9ice could continue to have a close relationship with his child.
The dynamics of collaborations and working relationships between musicians and producers can be greatly impacted by personal ties and conflicts in the music business. ID Cabasa made this choice because he wanted to make sure that 9ice could keep in touch with his child, and he thought that allowing Toni Payne to be involved in his music ventures would make that happen.
