Conceptualised from the viral Bazozwa Dance Challenge, inspired by the theme song for season six, the track was put together by Muthaland Entertainment and Africa Unite Records; however, without prior knowledge or involvement from the singers.

In a statement shared with Briefly News, the two record labels made it clear that "Any assumptions or claims suggesting their endorsement or collaboration on this specific remix are entirely false."

The vocals attributed to Cici and Liema Pantsi on the song were extracted from their single, Remember, which was released in December 2024.

The labels further emphasised that while they value the fans' love for the track, maintaining the integrity of the artists' brands is a top priority. By distancing Cici and Liema from the remix, the statement aimed to protect the singers from being misrepresented in a project they did not officially sign off on.

"We appreciate the public's enthusiasm for the music and the dance challenge. However, it is essential to ensure that the creative contributions and associations of all artists and brands are accurately represented. We kindly request that fans, media outlets, and content creators take note of this clarification to prevent any further misunderstandings regarding the affiliations of Big Brother Mzansi, Cici, and Liema Pantsi with this remix."

A representative from Muthaland Entertainment further emphasised that "Big Brother Mzansi was impartial" and did not favour any specific housemate, particularly in relation to the unsanctioned release of the Bazozwa Remix. He highlighted that the statement served to protect the integrity of the reality show's brand, making it clear that the production had no hand in using Liema’s vocals to create a viral advantage or a "fan-favourite" narrative during her time on the show.
