My ex-label trying to destroy me after suing me for $1m - Qing Madi

Nigerian singer Qing Madi, 19, has accused her former record label, JTon Music, of trying to sabotage her career. She made the allegations on Tuesday after the label allegedly removed her new collaboration with Zinoleesky, titled “Pepper Me,” from Spotify.

Madi said she recently left JTon Music following disputes and now believes the label is retaliating by undermining her work. She claimed the label had previously sued her for $1 million but lost the case. “My ex‑label, the same people that tried to destroy Cynthia Morgan, are trying to do the same to me,” she wrote on Instagram. “It pains me that I didn’t give up even after suing me for 1 million dollars and losing your case.”

The singer vowed to use every available means to have the song restored on Spotify. She also referenced the struggles of fellow Nigerian artist Cynthia Morgan, whose career was reportedly derailed by disputes with her former label.

JTon Music has not yet responded to the allegations. The dispute highlights ongoing tensions in Nigeria’s music industry over artist‑label relationships and creative control.
