I did not call out Mercy Chinwo over unpaid royalties – Producer Dr Roy

Music producer Dr. Roy has refuted claims of accusing popular gospel singer Mercy Chinwo of neglecting to pay him royalties.

In a video posted on Instagram, Roy cautioned bloggers to be careful with their posts, clarifying that his grievances were directed towards a record label executive, Ezekiel ThankGod, widely known as ‘Eezee T’, the owner of Eezee T Concept, and not Mercy Chinwo.

He explained that both he and Mercy Chinwo faced challenges under Eezee T’s management, and since then, the gospel singer has been supportive of him. Roy also mentioned how Chinwo came to his aid when his father suffered a stroke.

Dr. Roy’s response comes in light of circulating reports alleging that he accused Mercy Chinwo of abandoning him after collaborating on her hit songs during an appearance on the podcast show ‘Honest Bunch with Nedu’.

Quoting Roy’s purported statement, “Mercy Chinwo and I worked on her ‘Excess Love’ project and other tracks for 22 hours straight for days, and I didn’t get my royalties. When my father was sick, I called Mercy to assist me, and all she said was ‘He’ll be fine’.”

However, Dr. Roy, through a video message, has denied making any derogatory remarks about Mercy Chinwo. Meanwhile, there has been no response from Eezee T regarding Roy’s assertions at the time of this report.
