I Stopped Being A Marlian Record Signee Since 2019 – Guccy Branch

A former member of Naira Marley’s Marlian team, Guccy Branch has come out to reveal that he disassociated himself from them in 2019 and has nothing to do with the music label following the death of Mohbad.

Recall that Guccy Branch was among those arrested by EFCC in 2019 when they picked up singers, Naira Marley, Zlatan, and their associate, Rahman Jago for alleged internet fraud.

Reacting to new questions about his whereabouts, Guccy has now shared that he stopped being a Marlian in 2019 and ran for his life because of the dangers that came with being part of the record label.

WOW.
