Afrobeats sensation Kizz Daniel has finally broken his silence over the controversy surrounding his missed Paris concert, revealing that a dispute between his tour agent and the event promoter was responsible for the unfortunate incident.
Taking to his Instagram Story, the “Buga” crooner explained that he was prepared to perform but missed his flight due to delays caused by his agent, Olamide Baron, who was allegedly trying to settle payment disagreements with another promoter.
“First, this wasn’t my fault,” Kizz Daniel wrote. “Whatever clips y’all are seeing is a beef between the tour agent @olamidebaron and the show promoter. I was paid in full to perform in Paris by @olamidebaron. He sold the show to another promoter, who breached their contract by not paying his balance.”
The singer stated that despite the confusion, he was ready for the event and even made it to the venue, only to find that the organizers had already closed for the night.
“I’ve been ready since 6 a.m. for a 12:25 p.m. flight. We were delayed from flying by @olamidebaron so he could get his money, which I wasn’t aware of until later. He resolved the issue, but by then, we couldn’t make the flight,” he explained.
According to Daniel, the next available flight was for 5:25 p.m., and although he arrived in Paris later that day, the show could no longer hold.
“We came into Paris late because of an unresolved issue between two promoters. I was paid and ready to perform! I never requested any specific car or an Escalade — all lies. I’ve been moving around Europe in rented cabs,” he clarified.
The singer emphasized his commitment to fans, noting that he still showed up at the venue despite the delay.
“I came to the venue because I wanted to perform, but the venue closes by 11 p.m. according to the promoters. I tried my best to make this a smooth run, but sometimes, e get as e be,” he said.
Kizz Daniel also highlighted his successful shows in Italy and Sweden, where he performed even under tight schedules, and confirmed his readiness for upcoming performances in Amsterdam and Cologne.
“I performed 4 a.m. in Parma after getting ready since 8 p.m., and 1:30 a.m. in Sweden after preparing since 9 p.m. For Amsterdam, I’ll be there by God’s grace. Cologne’s show is set for 10 p.m., and I’m excited,” he concluded.
