A five year contract between Mr Nice(Lucas Mkenda) and Granpa records has been terminated.
So far, Mr. Nice has managed to release only one song titled 'Chali wa Kibera' under the record label.
He was accused of harrasing ladies and not cooperating with management through the course of business.
The once celebrated Bongo artiste is also yet to face action for un recovered investments during the business with Granpa Records.
The termination occurs exactly four months after the contract was merged on February 2nd.
On Wednesday ,Granpa Records President
,Refigah chaired a press conference highligting atleast four major
grounds for elimination.
In a letter
dated on 3rd June, the Bongo artiste was accused of breaching the
contract by not communicating about a previously signed deal with
Tanzanians recording label Sharaff and Lamar.
The letter further stated that Mr. Nice failed to fulfill a pledge of 10% earnings to orphaned children in Kenya and Tanzania.
However, the contract signed in February read that 60% of payment goes to the managers and only 40% goes to the artiste.
In addition to his termination the letter read " ...you
are always drunk,miss st studio appointments and portray a negative
image of Granpa records.This has led to loss in collaboration to
opportunities."
Granpa records is legally consulting on recovering losses made .
Nevertheless, part of the contract stated that if any partners wished to terminate the contract would compensate at least Tsh 50,000,000 (Ksh 3,000,000).

So what next for Mr. Nice as his music is on air and who will win this case? He is yet to respond to several media reports and allegations posed to him.
