Akon Says May D’s Exclusion From ‘Chop My Money’ Video Raised Questions About P-Square’s Management

Akon Says May D’s Exclusion From ‘Chop My Money’ Video Raised Questions About P-Square’s Management

Akon has recalled working with P-Square and said an incident involving May D made him question how the duo’s team handled artists around them. Speaking in a recent interview, Akon said May D’s vocals were used on “Chop My Money”, but he was initially expected to be excluded from the video. Akon said he objected, insisting that May D deserved recognition for his contribution, and brought him to the United States for the shoot. The comments have renewed discussion about the management issues and internal tensions that surrounded P-Square during the peak of their career. May D has previously shared a similar account of the episode.

What do people think artists around a major duo should expect when their vocals appear on a hit record but they are left out of the video?

I agree. A featured voice being absent from the visuals can reasonably leave fans wondering how the collaboration was handled.

Akon's recollection makes the May D situation sound bigger than one video appearance; it raises questions about how collaborators were treated around P-Square.

Still, one recalled incident does not fully explain P-Square's management structure or everyone involved. There may be context beyond the interview.

This is why featured artists need clear written agreements covering credits, visuals, promotion, and who gets represented when a song is released.
