The star revealed on Twitter that Africori, the go-to hub for independent African artists, had no idea that Family Tree wasn't paying his royalties.

"Africori was never the problem. They had no idea the label was not sub-accounting to their artists. Instead just pocketing everything that was distributed by Africori as their own. I NEVER SIGNED ANYTHING. THAT'S ALL MY SH*T. Produced by ME, recorded by ME, at MY STUDIO."

The artist also thanked his team of lawyers for making sure that he got back the money that was owed to him.

"A sincere thank you @KMalatji and the #TailorMadeLaw team for getting my catalogue back in my possession after all my calls, emails, and texts failed. Thank you #Africori for realising my catalogue was for none to earn from but myself. We’re setting a precedent."
