Ruger revealed that he faced an unexpected wave of backlash, not just from fans but from fellow artistes and music industry insiders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">He explained that leaving a label in Nigeria often attracts negative sentiment, with many assuming the artiste is ungrateful or difficult to work with. That perception, he claims, led to isolation and subtle blacklisting from within the industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Ruger officially parted ways with Jonzing World in 2024, following an alleged fallout with label boss D\u2019Prince. Since then, he has been building his independent label, Blown Boy Entertainment, from the ground up. He has described the process as draining but necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Despite the setbacks, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/2025\/07\/11\/how-i-was-canceled-blacklisted-after-leaving-jonzing-world-ruger\/\"><strong>Ruger seems to be regaining his momentum, proving that cancel culture isn\u2019t always permanent when talent, resilience, and a bit of rebranding come into play.<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Afrofusion rising star Awosika Olayemi Josiah better known as Fido has opened up about a painful chapter in his career.
