The record deal between American Christian hip hop artist and music producer Gabriel Alberto Azucena who goes by the stage name GAWVI, formerly known as G-Styles and Reach Records has been terminated and nullified.
The news broke out on the 1st of February 2022 and the press statement issued by the record label was posted on their official Instagram handle.
While the reason for the termination of contract was not clearly stated, it said to be due to Gawvi’s behavior which are inconsistent with what Reach Records stands for as a Record Label.
Below is the transcript of the press statement issued by the record label as seen on their Instagram handle.
Due to behavior that is inconsistent with our core values we have ended our professional relationship with GAWVI.
This was a tough decision for us because of the level of complexity and because we invest in our artists not just for their talent, but also as brothers and sisters in Christ. This is something we have been processing for over a year and have wrestled with what would be the right way forward. New details that have been provided to us made us realize today’s decision was necessary. We also want our actions to be a reflection of love, care and concern for those who fail and those who are affected by our failures.
Each of us needs God’s grace and we invite you to pray for the families and individuals whose lives are being impacted. This is not a chance to throw anybody away. We continue to hope for restoration to be the outcome.
— Reach Records
