A heated exchange has erupted between music executive Ubi Franklin and singer Spyro, with both parties accusing each other of financial misconduct. Spyro recently claimed on a podcast that Ubi owes him $5,000 for a show they performed in Ghana.
However, Ubi has denied the allegation, stating that the issue stems from a prior car deal.
According to Ubi, he introduced Spyro to a car seller months before the show and informed him that a 10% commission of the car’s cost would be required. Ubi claims Spyro agreed but later refused to pay the commission. “Spyro wanted a car, and I made the connection for him. The agreement was simple—10% for brokering the deal. He’s the one who didn’t honor it,” Ubi said.
In response, Spyro shared screenshots of their WhatsApp conversations, denying any such agreement and reiterating that Ubi owes him $5,000 for the Ghana show. “There was no agreement about a 10% commission. Ubi is twisting the narrative to avoid paying what he owes me,” Spyro stated.
Meanwhile, Ubi has countered by claiming Spyro owes him ₦2.5 million as part of the car deal. “He still owes me ₦2.5 million after deducting my ₦10.5 million commission,” Ubi added.
The dispute has sparked mixed reactions online, with fans awaiting a resolution between the two.
