Following Cynthia Morgan‘s revelation about what led to her leaving Northside Entertainment (owned by Mr. P and Rude Boy at the time), fellow artist May D has spoken on what he suffered at the hands of the brothers.
May D had signed to P-Square‘s Square Records in May 2011, and he had recorded a few songs and had been featured on the duo’s Chop My Money remix with Akon.
