In recent events, music producer Dwayne Parkinson, widely recognized as Damage Musiq, took to his official Instagram story on Tuesday to shed light on what he perceives as ingratitude from Billboard recording artiste Teejay. The accusation comes hot on the heels of Teejay’s public criticism of fellow entertainer Popcaan, creating a fresh wave of controversy within the music industry.
Parkinson’s post, laden with a subliminal tone, stated, “If A Never Me Them Wouldn’t Move From Rags Much More To See Riches … #UngratefullBoss.” While the post hints at Teejay’s alleged ungratefulness, the specific incidents or issues leading to this accusation were not explicitly disclosed.
It is worth noting that Damage Musiq and Teejay have previously collaborated on successful projects, including the well-received tracks “Rags To Riches” and “I’ll Touch The Sky.” The former, released in 2020 under the Damage Music imprint, has garnered an impressive 65 million views on YouTube, earning the distinction of being the highest-streamed song in Jamaica for 2020. Similarly, “I’ll Touch The Sky,” released two years ago, has accumulated 11 million views on the platform to date.
Despite their past collaborative success, the recent public exchange suggests a strain in the professional relationship between the two. The music producer, known for his noteworthy contributions to the industry, including work with artists like Shatta Wale and Tommy Lee Sparta, has now voiced his discontent over what he perceives as a lack of appreciation from Teejay.
As the music community watches this unfolding drama, it remains to be seen whether the artists will address these allegations publicly or if this dispute will impact their future partnerships.
