After peddling claims that Taurus Musik failed to honour a contract agreement with her leading to her departure, Petra seems to be on a collision course with the music stable that has threatened to take legal action against the singer.
In a letter posted to MondayBlues from Taurus, the stable claimed that the singer was troublesome, petty and unreliable leading to the termination of the five-year deal.
“Despite this, we went on to give her a five-year deal because we believed in her talent and were willing to take risk in the endeavour.
We provided her with accommodation in a luxurious three- bedroom apartment along Ngong Road, next to prestige plaza. She had one housemate but her room was en suite and fully furnished,” the letter read in part.
During an interview with Pulse, Petra had stated that the stable had put her up in a house whose standards were below the agreed levels.
“We got her on a record with Parker, a Nigerian artiste who is signed onto Nickie Minaj’s record label. This shows the labels devotion to Petra as this was accomplished in under three weeks. The label delivered its contractual obligations,” the letter had it.
According to Taurus, weeks into the deal, Petra alleged that she had been diagnosed with vulva cancer in an attempt to extort money from the record label.
“On deeper investigation, we discovered the information she gave us was not correct and that she was with child. She did not inform the label on signing though she was aware,” the letter added.
The young star confessed to us that she was indeed pregnant and is getting married soon.
“I don’t really want any showdown between me and Taurus. It is not like I have beef with them and they should not see it that way,” Petra told MondayBlues.
