According to the stand-up comedian he helped Sean Tizzle snag three shows, and when he called on him to perform at his own show the pop act allegedly gave him a ridiculous price.

"I called on Sean Tizzle and he was charging me a certain amount of money, I didn’t know if it was him or his management that charged me, but I don’t care, I had to tell my team to blacklist his name on any of my shows" revealed Basketmouth during an interview on Hip TV.
