Seyi Vibez Bows To Pressure, After Hilda Baci Threatens With Lawsuit

Street pop star Seyi Vibez has deleted social media posts about celebrity chef Hilda Baci hours after receiving a legal warning threatening a lawsuit.

The move comes amid an ongoing feud between the singer and his former label, Dapper Music, owned by Damilola Akinwunmi, popularly known as Dapper.

Seyi Vibez, with ex-Dapper Music acts Shallipopi and T.I Blaze, had publicly accused the label of royalty disputes and alleged missing funds to the tune of N1 billion.

In the heat of the exchange on X, Seyi Vibez made allegations against Hilda Baci, Dapper’s girlfriend. He claimed the music executive used money from their catalogue to fund Hilda’s cosmetic surgery, and also made disparaging remarks about her food business.

Hilda, through her lawyers, responded with a cease-and-desist letter. She described the posts as defamatory and demanded that Seyi Vibez take them down and issue a public apology, or face legal action.

“We hereby demand that upon receipt of this letter, you immediately remove and permanently delete the above referenced publications together with any other statement, post, comment, image, video and repost,” the letter read.

The lawyers further demanded: “Issue a clear and unequivocal public apology and retraction in respect of the offending publications, to be published prominently and contemporaneously across all your social media accounts.”

Following the warning, Seyi Vibez deleted all posts referencing Hilda Baci.

As of press time, he is yet to issue the demanded public apology. Seyi Vibez signed with Dapper Music in 2022. He announced his exit in September 2024 and now describes himself as an “Independent artist.”
