There is rancour on micro-blogging site, Twitter after talented Nigerian singer Oxlade took to social media to announce a new contract with Columbia records.
Recall that the fast-rising ‘Ojuju’ crooner took to his Twitter page on Thursday to announce that he just signed a record deal with Columbia records which is coming a month after his leaked s3xtape.
“New beginnings. New Blessings. Let the year begin,” Oxlade wrote on Twitter.
Columbia records also welcomed the singer in a post on Twitter; “Welcome Oxlade to the Columbia UK family!”
The development has sparked mixed reactions on social media with many referencing to Tiwa’s s3xtape and the backlash she received at the time.
Others also wondered how Oxlade was able to secure a contract after his viral s3x tape leaked.

@theoladeledada “Oxlade got signed to Columbia Records UK after his s3x scandal. Tiwa Savage reportedly lost a couple of endorsement deals after her sex tape was released. I’m not saying we shouldn’t celebrate the new achievement by Spiderman of Lagos, but we need to break the bias in this world.”
@Femi_gbaro “Oxlade didn’t say he got signed on the basis, what he meant that he got signed even though the s3x tape leaked and Tiwa wouldn’t have gotten that luxury.”
@Davidloealabi “There are things men do and get away with, and there are things women do and get away with. Chris Brown was accused of rape and dragged, he’s provided receipt in defence and same people that dragged him are quiet. The girl’s identity remains protected. It’s what it is.”
@Emmanuleossai_ “Gender privileges will always exist no matter how much people complain, and nothing can be done about that cos we are not the same. Women have their privileges too that men do not have. These are just the peculiarities that come with belonging to any of the genders.”
@Arakijohn3 “The judgment and behaviour towards women is something else. Oxlade was even celebrated in Lagos while Tiwa was called names.”
