According to Sunday World, Cici had a verbal agreement with label chief Kgosi Mahumapelo to part ways with Ambitiouz and sign with her sister's agency, The House of Thom.
“Now she is doing so well with all these songs and obviously he wants his share of the money."
However, despite her desire to leave, Mahumapelo still holds power over the singer:
"The artist [Cici] is still signed to Ambitiouz Entertainment."
DJ Zinhle's Thula removed from streaming sites
The legal battle between Cici and Ambitiouz comes after the success of the singer's hit song with DJ Zinhle, Thula. The song was removed from streaming sites after Ambitiouz lodged a claim over the track's copyrights.
A frustrated DJ Zinhle opened up about their struggles to keep the song on streaming sites despite constant removals:
"I’m exhausted … I don’t know why #Thula is not available on Apple Music and iTunes. Never had to fight so much for a song."
Following some negotiations between the parties, Thula was returned to streaming sites where ultimately, Ambitiouz Entertainment was credited as the official record label.
