He said; “I got detained illegally, it was more like a kidnap, it was not an arrest because they could not put me in the cell. I had to sleep on the road with policemen that were on patrol.”

He left Anonymous Music in 2021 after having a dispute with the management that led to a court case. Timz founded his own label, Shock Absorbers Music the same year.

Nigerian street artiste, Akinbiyi Abiola Ahmed, popularly called Bella Shmurda, had a similar experience.

He revealed that he paid a huge sum of money to free himself from the contract he signed with his former record label.
