Music artist T.I Blaze has taken aim at Dapper Music, accusing the executive of mishandling N1.2 billion in royalties and intellectual property rights. The singer expressed his concerns on his X page, questioning Dapper Music's role in the music catalogues and the payment of royalties to artists. He also raised questions about Virgin Music's involvement in the arrangement and demanded an explanation for the unaccounted N1.2 billion.
"How did Virgin Music get involved in a business where you're supposed to take 30 percent and bounce, from whose cut is Virgin taking their share?" T.I Blaze questioned. He further accused Dapper Music of licensing another person's intellectual property without mutual agreement, stating that greed had led to betraying those who helped generate the revenue.

The singer also warned that those who let greed cloud their judgment would ultimately return to their original state. "When you get so drunk on your dreams and can't fight greed spirit, betrayed those that make the Bag primarily. you’ll be that colorful butterfly that goes back to being a caterpillar," he said.
