The late artist’s departure from Marlian Music and allegations of contract breaches had already drawn significant attention.

The claims by VeryDarkMan add a new layer to the ongoing discourse, keeping the spotlight on the unresolved issues surrounding Mohbad’s death and his strained relationship with Marlian Music.
